I’ve not noticed anything to this extent, but i have always assumed some people with more time than sense just refresh a private browser to upvote themselves to the top. not really sure though. i have observed that if its late in the night usa time a single vote can send you up higher as there are less photos being made so it can get up trending a lot easier. While I’m sure the system is fair since I mostly make abstracts its very rare that i even see one of my images get past recent =( I’ve just started to save to personal galleries on that generator none of the upvotes matter anyway so i just see it as it is what it is.
