They literally have several alts they use to upvote their posts lmao.

There’s 100% something going with votes ever since a month or 2 ago, Yog started randomly getting ~10-20 more upvotes out of no where on random comments and posts, often time’s in less than 5-10 minutes, it was especially strange when it would happen to one of his comments sandwiched between a comment he was replaying to and a comment replying to him, but it’s very inconsistent it doesn’t happen all the time and I haven’t noticed any patterns to it, and then I noticed it happening to a few of my comments too, and I see suspicious vote behavior like that here and there now too, I suspect there’s either someone testing voting bots to see how well lemmy instances can detect them, or it’s just some strange lemmy bug that hasn’t been reported yet.

I asked one of the lemmygrad admins to check these two comments of mine that I noticed, https://lemmygrad.ml/comment/1359803 https://lemmygrad.ml/comment/1361307 and see if they noticed any strange accounts upvoting them, but I never got a response

Every one of their comments has exactly 5 upvotes, it’s so obvious and embarrassing lmao. Like watching someone shid and fard all over the floor while screaming “I’m not owned!”

I look forward to the day when I see “preemptive last resort” on the newest Hexbear iceberg .
