It's becoming more noticeable how certain content gets artificially boosted to the homepage. Using coordinated fake accounts to artificially inflate early engagement metrics seems to be a workaround some creators exploit—flooding comments in the first hour to trigger algorithmic promotion. The result? Low-quality, repetitive posts dominating feeds while genuine discussions get buried. The platform's algorithm rewards speed and volume over substance, creating perverse incentives. Until there's better fraud detection and engagement validation, this pattern will likely continue poisoning community spaces.

The algorithm has been messed up again; this should have been addressed a long time ago.

The algorithm has been messed up, who doesn't know that? But can it really be fixed?
