    The content will bring in users. I try to comment on interesting topics to help drive engagement.

      This is my thoughts as well. I’ve noticed that once one or two people express interest in a post, it tends to get much more traffic

      Only if the content is organic. Look at [email protected] . Full of bot posts from reddit with 0 comments. Even if one of them gets a comment, it would get drowned out by the subsequent bot posts. Blindly filling a community with bot posts would eventually make people unsub from it.

        I’m sure those bots are well intended, but I would rather not see bots just copying posts from reddit blindly. When you sort all by new, it’s just a swamp of bot posts.

        Edit: So I checked to verify my claim and most are from @[email protected] iirc and you can just block that account to stop seeing all the automated posts from reddit

      It depends on the content.

      Some of content really depends on OP being in the comments, like AmITheAsshole. Just reposting doesn’t give the kind of interaction that the original post would have.
