Apparently engagement on that other site’s r/conservative dropped by 2/3 when Russian data centers went down due to drone strikes.

    I don’t really see how mentions of the subreddit is meaningful of how many bots there were. There are so many posts about r/conservative being down from other subreddits that I can’t see the correlation

      Same, which is why I’m assuming that I’m misinterpreting what I’m looking at. My interpretation doesn’t make any sense, but for somebody who’s never looked at whatever that is, that’s what it looks like it’s saying? It’s probably obvious to people who look at that shit every day, but I’m not sure if the “mentions” are correlating to what’s in the search bar looking thing or what. Or maybe “mentions” is jargon with a different meaning? Idk.
