      NSQ has 40k subscribers, that’s not “niche”, at least for Lemmy.

      It’s an old pop culture reference, nothing more. I’m teasing people that think there’s some value in up/down votes here or that posting then deleting things has some sort of tangible effect.

      I guess some people haul their baggage with them wherever they happen to go.

  A number of possibilities

  1. trolling and sealioning
  2. Bots or account farming
  3. People who are mentally unwell
  4. People who don’t know the difference between generating content and engagement, and spam
  5. Astroturfing and propaganda

  Etc
