Content is slowing drastically, r/all isn't updating for most of the day from low engagement, reddit uses a differential for upvotes which doesn't reflect total users well.
I agree, I studied abroad with a 12 hour difference and during the day there, when I browsed Reddit, most of the posts were lower quality because most people were asleep. (Sorry euro peeps)
It's when the evening came that the posts picked up quality and engaged me.
Now that I'm stateside, I feel like Reddit posters are completely and perpetually asleep (or just gone).
It's really wild to see reposts over and over. Like some Redditbot constantly spamming the same thing hoping to get some traction going for conversation.
Ahahahah we know.

ELI5? I'm genuinely interested - just wonder what this means? I'd always assumed +1 on a post meant 1 user clicking the "upvote" button.
It's some sort of weird percentage once you get past a certain number. I'm fuzzy on the numbers but 1.2k upvotes shown on the website was worth a different amount than actual. Something like 1.5k = 1.2k upvotes for your personal karma.
They "fuzz," votes, and it starts after only 10 or so. It will return a value within 10% or so of the true vote. It is to obfuscate the totals to make it harder for bot accounts to tell if they are shadowbanned or not.
I am not reddit geek so TIL
