Try to remember that a lot of engagement on reddit nowadays is bots. Even if they seem like humans. How Lemmy is now is how reddit felt back in 2008.
Is this to be Lemmy's future? I tend to believe there's no practical way to distinguish between real users and bots.
It's nice at the moment because it's new, but it seems ripe for the astroturfing. The bots are on the way.
