A community dedicated to fediverse news and discussion.
Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".
Getting started on Fediverse;
Over a houndred dollars for 700 upvotes O_o
I wouldn't exactly call that cheap 🤑
On the other hand, ten or twenty quick downvotes on an early answer could swing things I guess ...
For the companies who want a huge advantage over others, $100 is nothing in an advertising budget.
I have a small business and I do $1000 a week in advertising.
the only problem here is that 700 reddit upvotes is not "huge advantage over others". i honestly fail to see how someone could pay $100 for that. i'd consider $10 too much.
or do you spend your $1000 budget on 7000 reddit upvotes? :D
700 extra upvotes in the first couple hours on a medium sized hobby sub is an enormous amount and will give you great exposure to potentially tens of thousands of potential customers who won't just ignore it like some banner ad (since they'll think it's real content).
