Pretty popular at the time, as posts were getting tens of thousands of upvotes. So the view-to-vote ratio must have been fairly high. The thing was, the bots everywhere. They were in every thread and were in subs that were not specifically centered on politics. By no means was every bot was a left-wing bot, mind you, as most were right-wing bots. However, there was a notable style of commenting from the bots.
The Gen Z sub tanked in its popularity over the month after the election as well, especially given so many right-wing bots absolutely polluted the sub at that time. Shit was so toxic to be around.
Reddit and TikTok mostly; the Gen Z sub had quite a number popping up a few months before the 2024 election for instance.
How big was the gen z sub?

I was off of reddit well before then. I never spent any time in the gen z sub, but was there when CTH got banned.
