This has been true for over a year now, I think the only reason that community points anywhere else is because a majority of them already moved to Lemmy instances.

lemmy sweep
Lemmy got me moving like a parallelogram
It will be interesting to see how long this run lasts and how far it takes us.
I think (hope) this might be Reddit’s death. Reddit as we knew it 10-15 years ago is already gone. It’ll keep going with bots talking to bots and idiots, but if you can’t even upvote what you want without getting a ban, who’s going to stick around?
If you came to reddit from digg, you'll have seen how they've been turning up the algorithm interference over the years. It used to just be upvotes, raw popularity. It's a bad faith actor at this stage. Some frogs will jump out of the water while it boils, many won't notice and will get algo brainwashed.
At this point they are mainstream and are probably gaining a crazy amount of new people who don't know any better. They'll stick around to talk to the bots and generate some ad revenue just like facebook lol.
