It might a bit conspiratorial on my part but this post is super uninteresting. Feels like some intern at a Marvel PR department made this post on a schedule and then it got upvoted by bots to drive engagement. The comments in the thread are just as uninteresting as the post.

You can use this website to bypass some paywalls.
It works like a religion, frankly.
Israel has an app where they will inform you if there is anti-Israel content (aka honest criticism) on social media so you can go shill for them.

Yeah the problem with voting is that it assumes it is an actual human user and any bit detection will eventually be subverted which just leads to an endless battle of devs/admins vs bots.
Maybe some kind of vote weight feature that counts votes not in numbers but relative to user activity/reputation? Of course that could no doubt be manipulated as well, not to mention it could just end up hindering discussion and new content. This might get extra weird when youre dealing with a federated platform like Lemmy.
I’m 100% convinced that many top posts and even numerous memes are actually created by companies. So many memes nowadays are literally just ads for fast food chains or the newest shows on Netflix or what have you

Honestly some would call this nuts to think happens, but when you see what else they do, memes are just the tip of the iceberg

what the fuck
Oh my god that is so deeply fucked.
Hmm 🤔
What i don’t even…
That’s on a whole next level!
That’s the hardest ive laughed at anything in a while, thanks for that
There has always been a department of what we call now “influencers” in marketing/propaganda. It’s nothing new and people should know that.
Before social media they were sports people, writers, music artists, filmstars. The term “influencer” isn’t new and had been part of marketing degrees pre-internet simply referring to specific individuals with an audience that they held influential power over.
Today it’s used to generally refer to everyone with any kind of social media following, referring to everyone from bloggers to tweeters to streamers and youtubers to thirstposters on instagram. Ultimately it hasn’t changed in meaning much it’s just moved out of marketing rooms and into collective use.
Yup, I just didn’t heard the therm before the Social Media boom, maybe because in Spain it uses another therm?.. But yeah that.
Oh I’m absolutely certain. A lot of popular trends feel artificial and corporate, even if it’s pornographic in nature.
inevitable karma farm for children and manchildren to say something ‘‘unpopular’’ that is actually quite popular
Because truly unpopular opinions get people big mad.
especially on reddit

I studied marketing. Yes, this is a marketing strategy and also a market/population study. Social Media was invented for this specifically.
Working like a charm.
And you can’t imagine how cheap it is!
Is that Libreddit?
Yes. It’s impossible to browse the website without an account unless using a frontend like libreddit or teddit.
