  • Mini rant: that’s the #1 thing I was getting sick of before exiting Reddit. It was at the point where the larger subs, think memes or technology, were all reposts of high performing posts that bots were posting. Then they’d use other bot accounts to steal the highest performing comments from under the same picture/article.

    The amount of times I’d see the same post 10 times, with the same top comments all from different accounts that all cross posted between each other because they were a part of the same network was crazy. The bot population was insane at the time I left.

    I’m not even talking about regular reposts which I actually do like. (I think there’s an XKCD about post exposure?) I’m talking about coordinated karma farms that would spam the hell out of the place.








  • I’ve been diehard anti-Apple for anything but their mobile devices (iPhone, ipad) for most of my life. Overpriced, underpowered. Now I own a MacBook Pro M4 and I just can’t get over how good it is. What a turnaround their change to Apple Silicone has made, it’s actually wild to me.

    MacBooks, specifically, are still expensive but actually value for money now.
