Reddit admins literally ran bot accounts to fill content on reddit and make it seem more active at first. The users who came from Digg had similar complaints, and reddit userbase fluctuated at lot in the first few years. It's actually exactly the same (minus the admins using bots to make it seem more active).
No one is asking you, specifically, to do it.
Maybe we should ask spez to come over and help generate engagement :P
Eh, remains to be seen. The pacing of the internet today is very different.
Then don't get on my case for not liking the lack of content, geez!
Sorry, I just think it's a dumb, entitled complaint. I'm not asking you to do anything other than stop whinging.
Redditor-level rudeness sure showed up quickly though
That's funny, I thought it was redditor-level entitlement that showed up.
