There is no way to validate “upvotes” or “downvotes” on reddit.
Reddit consumers are owned by the corpo-state-gulag.
Redditors have neither rights, nor powers.

Reddit = Bluesky
It is worse. Bluesky at least tries to do in theory what nostr does, at the expense of needing 20 PhDs and millions of dollars to get started.
How are reddit daily user stats? I'd imagine it's at 10% of its peak?
Reddit is doing well overall.

what percentage of those are bots, and how can on verify?
how would you answer the same question about nostr stats?
This is a question I asked nostr:npub176p7sup477k5738qhxx0hk2n0cty2k5je5uvalzvkvwmw4tltmeqw7vgup. Methodology should be reproduceable and verifiable.
What is the answer for reddit?
For new user cohorts on any platform or protocol, including nostr (actually especially nostr) bots can be whatever % you want them to be. Most LLMs pass the Turing test these days.
There is no reproducible, cross-platform methodology anywhere. It's a complete fever dream. There is only deep, bespoke investigation of various quirks, clues and historical data specific to each platform, client, etc.
Nostr stats are actually bad, too.
They are definitely mostly bots and they are lying to investors
Hard to believe.
When I find out I'm powerless and have no rights because I can't verify upvotes on Reddit
nostr:npub12zqf55l7l9vsg5f6ssx5pq4f9dzu6hcmnepkm8ftj25fecy379jqkq99h8 you must channel your superpower and trigger this realization in all of the reddit
It goes deeper than that, with my powers I will unite the fediverse into one singularity of consensus and karmic cycles 🌟
