So I checked out reddit after a long time and was going through the top of r/videogames subreddit and I could clearly see a pattern in most of the posts there. Posts were mostly like “what game ______ for you?” or “what game _____ like this?” Now I could be wrong but it doesn’t feel ‘organic’ (if that’s correct way to put it). It’s like these are put up intentionally. Thoughts?

    Why are you using r/videogames as an example to make this claim?

    There are at least two more subs that are wildly more popular and have much more activity and substantial posts and commenting.

    • videogames - 293k subscribers
    • Games - 3.3m subscribers
    • gaming - 40m subscribers

    I am subbed to both of those last two and didn’t even know the first one existed because it’s offshoot trash.
