I have been lurking on Reddit for 5 years with only one follower. In last 5 days, I got 6 followers out of nowhere. Do anyone living same thing? Could Reddit have fallen that far? Also, when I look at my follower list, I still have that one loyal follower.
I hope I’m not doing conspiracy theory.
They’re all bots. Look at the names. They likely all follow the same weird pattern of nonsensical words.
As I know, that is auto generated username by Reddit. But you are probably right about they are bots.
I get lots of NSFW-followers, who then turn out to have been banned / deleted.
Yeah I’ve been getting about 1 a day. All clearly devised to be attractive to my demographic.
But also clearly bots.
Not sure what’s the best /most fun thing to do with it though.
Edit: all of them have apparently been taken down. So maybe not a reddit-devised scheme.
