There isn't explicitly a profit motive on here (unlike almost every other big social media site).

We don't do that here.
"So you can do away with the clickbait-y, karma or like farming..."
Are there many individual users who participate in these type of activities?
My understanding is that a lot of it is automated: farming with the intent to make accounts look legitimate and eventually manipulate public opinion to whatever ends (like selling a product/service).
Is kbin doing anything different that would curb or dissuade such behavior?
