Like people always say reddit is filled with bots, but I looked through the users of the top posts and didn’t find evidence that they are bots.

Like how do you know who is a bot? Is there things to look out for?

Edit: And I’d appreciate it if there are real examples of bots getting caught and the evidence of them being bots.

    What’s even wilder is the market for user accounts. I went into that rabbithole once and it was very interesting. Multiple sites you can filter for-sale accounts by age, karma, types of subreddits visited, comment count, etc etc. all for sale, and looking to buy. $300-600 I remember seeing. Probably a lot more too, but this was awhile ago.
