    reddit doesn’t inflate the upvotes lol. they, for years, deflated the votes to make smaller communities appear bigger compared to the main subs.

        That’s not the same as inflating scores, and that’s what the feature is designed to do, make smaller communities more visible. The didn’t remove hot or rising to make it either. This is a wild conspiracy you’ve manufactured here, considering they explained why they made these changes when they made them.

        Cool story bro. You think you can hide behind the concept of “I’m just giving the people what they want”, but you can’t. You can post this trash. But unlike reddit, you can also get called out and shamed in the comments and there are no power mods here to protect you (yet).

        I don’t want this to be reddit. You are behaving like a redditor and attracting people I don’t want here. So now you get hear about it.

          I’m acting like the moderator of this community who is trying to grow the community with content people want to discuss and share.
