Reddit is 99% schill bots. Heaven help you if you're researching baby products. The entire scandalous baby product market has commandeered Reddit with accounts like this one that I found just because I kept seeing the name pop up relentlessly hawking the same products:

- encom 3y ago99,9% of the time, a username in the format NameNameNumber is a bot. The probability goes up as the value of Number increases.
- crote 3y agoThis used to be the case, but at some point in the last few years Reddit started suggesting usernames like that to new human users. It'll generate stuff like "Fine_Ad6357", "Unhappy-Benefit8521", and "SuccessfulShape2454". I believe they started doing this because Reddit got really popular and all the normal usernames were eventually taken. I wouldn't be surprised if they implemented this after noticing that a significant number of signup attempts were aborted due to multiple attempted usernames already being taken.
- prawn 3y agoI think they're suggesting NameNameNumber and not WordWordNumber.
