Whoever botted the points on this, it's impressive. I found it on hn.algolia.com but can't find it on the front page, so I guess anti-bot measures are working.

It's actually crazy, I got here from a notification via pushbullet (which usually sends me hour old high point posts). But here we are with it barely 15 mins old. You'd think they'd try to not be so eggregious about it.

Same for me. I got here via pushbullet and I was at first confused about the comments here until I saw yours ^^

BTW, using bot accounts to upvote your post will permanently soil your company's reputation on this site.

Edit: the botted post was for "prodevtivity.com", to anyone searching them up in the future.

It's so obvious it makes me think it has to be a competitor doing this to them, or just a troll.

More than 500 points in 10 minutes. If they wanted to advertise themselves, they wouldn't do it like this, it's too excessive.

That's what I said elsewhere here, it's just so eggregious. Hadn't considered it might be a rival trying to burn competition.

Or maybe the Botting process went bad lol.
