It probably only takes a staff on the order of a thousand people to make things go viral on the internet.

Depending on the site, maybe less than that.

It wasn't all that long ago that Reddit had "power users" that was just a small handful of people/one person running an account that consistently made it viral on the site.

Yep, like the jackdaw dude. No, not going to name him. He didn't have that many alt accounts but they were enough for that initial push of his posts.

Was that unidan? I remember it being a story back then but I could be mixing up my random internet accounts.

Correct.
