      There’s a reason most of the regular posters on reddit and (probably lemmy too? it isn’t hard to automate these things) are likely run by marketing agencies. Post relevant posts 90% of the time, comment occasionally, and then sneak in a post or ad disguised as an article rest of the time.

      All run by virtual assistant in some third world countries for that human touch.

        My record so far was 1750 and some change, but the number really doesn’t change the point. All of these end up being fed to an abusive ad network, and someone makes money off your shit, without you ever knowing about it
