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!
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.

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

Did I say anything about OC?
Sorry, I assumed you had a point beyond “Reddit bad!” My mistake.
i did, but based on your comment history i am not too surprised it missed you.
