Comment on Something we all can agree on
Bennyboybumberchums@lemmy.world 1 week agoI heard that the mods on r/pics are getting at the very least, 6 figures. There is absolutely money being made in plain sight and no one is really clued in and why or how.

Did you know that people can go on the Internet and tell lies?

You messed up. I got my 40 Ruble check from Putin for registering a lemmy.ml account, President Xi gives me 60 cents per post, and George Soros doubles that.

AS the old saying goes, mate, its not what you know, its who you know. If you dont know the reddit maffia, you dont get to know anything. Reddit is the 7th largest platform on the internet based on traffic numbers. But the funny thing is, chatgpt, the 5th largest platform based on traffic, gets over 40% of its citations from reddit.
This is a question of influence. If people want to push a specific ideology, they go to reddit. And if you have the right mods on side, you can push whatever you want and ban and delete any and all dissenting voices.
For example u/Llim, a mod on something like 18 subs. Most of which have millions of users. or u/abrownn, mod on 25 subs, again most of which have millions of users per sub. I can keep going on, and this is just by looking at the mod list of r/mademesmile. Look at others in the most popular sub list, and you’ll see the same names over and over again as mods. This is how they do it. A small number of people, who control what can and cannot be posted, which in turn influences search engine and AI citations. This is where the money is made.
