I know Bluesky is the backwater lib bubble that will never matter in a million years or whatever but it's funny to note that the Washington Post has its Walgreens Bari Weiss podcast over here farming rage views because their engagement on YouTube is so bad

My serious guess is they've probably increased their engagement 50x over what they were pulling organically on YouTube - not that that's hard to pull off, but still

These were by all appearances posted around the same time

I watched a video the other day (that almost immediately got taken down so I now can't link it 🫠) about 5 Minute Crafts and how it has one of the most egregious bot farming schemes, and I wouldn't be surprised if the right was taking notes

Humanity unites to despise corporate attempt at clicky pigshit
