Reddit's enshitification was a long time in the making, bots and psyops are all it consists of anymore. I wonder if Eglin AFB, home to psyop army units (1st and 7th Special Forces), is still burning the midnight oil...

Surely there's an alternate explanation for this? ie. the military is filled with 20-somethings, and reddit's primary demographic is 20-somethings, therefore you'd expect any sort of cluster of 20-somethings (ie. a military base) to be more "reddit addicted"? Moreover, surely the US military can afford a $5/month VPN subscription to cover their tracks?


And yet, there weren't any other military bases, and Reddit deleted that blog post after publication. There's a lot more information available if you care to search.
