    Everybody is obsessed with with copying Reddit here.

    Nobody wants to put in the work to build it organically like Reddit was, they just want to press a button and have a bot “seed” content until poof! There’s a community!

    It just doesn’t, and won’t ever, work that way.

      I don’t necessarily disagree, but Reddit wasn’t all OC at the start, either.

      I guess now there are so many social media sites now that some people spend all their time, to paraphrase Cory Doctorow, cross-posting between 5 sites for Internet points or to build a following. It sucks, but plugging away posting OC will build it up over time.
