    But it has 10k impressions!!! which means that 9k bots scrolled past it and a couple of people had it loaded on their app.

      Same idea as new-reddit with its ‘views’. It doesn’t make sense how some post on a local subreddit gets a few hundred impressions immediately, even when posted at 4am. Meanwhile the actual organic comments on the same post follow the average human wake/sleep cycle

      I wonder if advertisers are also fooled by those numbers, or if they use a different way of measuring
