I wish we could see up/downvotes like in the past. I think reddit may be artificially boosting some posts into the front page. You can see in the screenshot it has very little upvotes (or older) compared to the other top 4 posts.
I have no evidence other than noticing right after the election, /r/conservative seems to be hitting the front page every day. But I remember before the election, it only hit the front page once in a blue moon or so. Is this just me? Am I the only one noticing this?
You’re better than this conspiracy crap.
They populate the front page based on views, not votes. People (like you for instance, and possibly now several people reading this thread) are increasingly visiting r/conservative right now.
