If you go on poal, voat, patriots.win, ANY social media site that allows likes / upvotes that isn't main stream you'll notice consistently the participation rate in upvoting is LOW. Not the amount that could have upvoting, but just the shear participation rate.

This has led me to believe twitter, youtube, reddit etc all partake in false upvote counts etc simply to boost the perceived participation.

Sites like gab, voat, poal, patriots.win etc may already have more clout than it seems like they do.

Typically only a small percentage of viewers. I've gone days without commenting or upvoting. For the views to votes ratio, you can view it 100s of of times, but can only vote on it once per account.
