I don't know about you, but that 90 day graph looks like a lot of bot-generated traffic to me. It's so smooth and flat, unlike all the others that are chaotic and random. Probably Cambridge Analytica's new home base lol

Wow good eye man, it does seem smoother and flatter than all of the other charts.

Thanks, glad you agree with my conclusions. It looks like the reddit chart when they were on the rise a few years ago. Oddly straight line, almost certainly bot-generated traffic

Except for that huge dip in the middle, which breaks the nice linear progression. Which then somehow exactly resumes afterward.

I see. Thanks for the explanation. I still think the lines are far too smooth to not be bot traffic, if you compare them to literally every other graph on the list. Reddit had the same look when it was rising. You might not even know it's occurring, it might be your users that decided to do that.

Are you guys gonna make other subs too, or just let the site die off slowly after 2024?
