Reddit reposts are terrible because it's always bots spamming old, popular content in order to build up karma.

You reminded me of the main reason why I didn't like Reddit reposts (it's been a while). Just as bad were the other bots that took top comments from the earlier posts and put them in verbatim in the repost.

100% true. 0% regrets.

I also react differently to simple things like hugs, drawings, or snacks delivered via faceless corporation versus a child I love.
