So the bots were only posting on r/programming? That seems kinda odd if it really was the admins. Wouldn't they do it everywhere or at least some actually important sub? Sounds more like some 3rd party.
Seems to me that engagement is dropping and they're trying desperately to prop up those numbers. Lots of people have been walking away from that site in the last year or so. The mods turned that site into a shithole, just as leftists turn IRL states and countries into shitholes. Reddit is the California of the internet.

Its not the first time reddit has tried this bullshit recently :

Shareholders need to sue these executives for Fraud. I hope to see Spez in a 'pound-me-in-the-ass-prison' with Elizabeth Holmes.
The reason they are trying this is to juice up the numbers before the IPO.
The faggot would probably like that.
So everyone wins?

Or maybe they do it everywhere.
