  • It’s engagement farming.

    Notice how they’re all questions? The way this works on other social media is you ask something in a community that most people will have an opinion on, but frame it opposite to that opinion (e.g. the tiny tits question), and that will give you a bunch of engagement through comments which tells the algorithm the post is more interesting so it pushes the post higher to raise visibility to keep people on the site longer to view more ads.

    The thing is, Lemmy does not have an algorithm like that, so it’s pointless to do here.
