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.

      As I know, that is auto generated username by Reddit. But you are probably right about they are bots.

    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.
