      Nope. Network effect happens if there’s a network. For that you need an adequate amount of eyes per post so that people can start commenting and discussing stuff with one another.

      Dump in hundreds of copy-posted memes without enlarging the user base and it does exactly the opposite of the network effect: With much more posts per viewer, the viewers are spread thin over the posts which means there are never enough people on one post to actually start a meaningful discussion in the comments.

          Spam != Ads.

          If you send someone 100 emails a day, even if you think it’s relevant, it’s still spam even if you’re not advertising anything.

            I’m gonna open source extension and let people configure post frequency, it’s gonna default to 1 per 5 hours which is not a lot. There is also up vote filter - like only repost if post hits 100 for example. Frequency should be fine
