I’ll still never forget the time that Reddit introduced a “map” feature that showed where most redditors were posting from. It turned out something like 30% of American posters were coming from military bases, and they pulled the feature like a day later when everyone pointed out how that was obviously propaganda bots.
Yeah I remember the meetups and I see there’s a mention of a military base as “most addicted” place, but not sure that’s what the other comment was talking about.

When was that? I don’t remember that at all and I was on Reddit for like 10 years before moving here.

I’m failing to find any articles now. It was around 2020.
Yeah, I was over there since pre-comments and I don’t remember that unless it was a April fools joke I didn’t pay attention to.
