People are trying to seed new communities with content, but i think they overdo it by copying too much stuff over at once
In most communities, old content isn't helpful. It doesn't start any conversations, and people don't look at the old stuff.
Stuff like porn, pics, aww, or other subs where the conversation wasn't the point are an exception.
For me it was 2 bots that were the culprits. i blocked them both, and now there is barely a hit of reddit on my feed other then other lemmings comments about that dumpster fire of an app.
