Imagine being a tech company and using a stat like the number of emails received daily to justify pushing human users away from the product…
That’s what I see with all these companies.
They see a huge user base by numbers but can’t recognize that it’s 99% boots and spam, thinking that the 1% real users are going to pay to interact with bot spam
Reddit is the only site I’ve seen that had a problem with it actually handle it, Twitter absolutely didn’t, insta didn’t, Tumblr didn’t, 4chan kind of did but became a klan rally in exchange so I’m not really sure you can call that success
