I've already started moving over to lemmy but I'm also seeing some weird stuff on my Reddit account. I've had more 'Followers' sign on to my account in the last 2 weeks than I've seen in the last 3-4 years. I don't believe these are real followers. What would be the reason for this? Is Reddit playing some sort of statistics game with long-time Reddit accounts?
Those are just bots, fake girls
That was started before since end of May. Some bots are pretending to be hot girls living nearby you and to catch your attention are just following you, because if they send a message or start chat they will be banned in a few hours
