Why wouldn’t they simply tax water use at progressive rates? If you use a lot of water, you have to pay a lot of money (ideally, towards water processing services).
Doing low-flow laws makes for easy loophole setups like this, not to mention simply buying a device in/from another state. I doubt their cops are kicking down doors for Suspicion of High-Flow Toilet.
You’re asserting you know what isn’t posted to Reddit and why, based on a hunch, citing your age.
I don’t think that’s a logical position, no.
They do, but it’s rare because they think it’s common sense.
Liberals, leftists, and others maligned by the abuse of the word “woke” also don’t usually explain why that isn’t a bad thing, because to us it’s common sense.
In a word phrase? Echo chambers.
I’ve been on Reddit for decades too, and I disagree with you.
Assuming that a post wasn’t made and made visible because it has key words that were censored isn’t based on logic; you’re guessing.
I type fast enough that to a 72 year old it might look like magic or a bot.
Their stance is essentially that racism, sexism, etc. is dead, therefore belaboring it is akin to McCarthyism hunting for KGB spies from the dead USSR.
It kinda is a targeted political agenda, but not all targeted political agendas are evil.
“Hey can you stop being a piece of shit and instead choose to be kind?” is the targeted political agenda, which is highly offensive to pieces of shit.
I don’t have any evidence either way as far as who uses old.reddit to submit versus who doesn’t, and I don’t think there is any.
Why do you think you’re able to detect a bot by their Reddit comments? I strongly suspect you’re assuming low-effort, poorly-written comments are bots, when in reality they’re probably just dumb people.
I think the bot percentage is proportional to how big a subreddit is and how profitable influencing people browsing it is.
Niche community about how to proplift (stealing small cuttings to grow your own plants)? Zero or close to zero bots.
Crypto community with thousands of comments a day, where it’s all speculation that can’t be objectively disproven* so bots stick out like a sore thumb and tons of money flying around? You better believe the bots are all over that.
There’s no objective data to confirm or dispel your suspicion that there are zero few human Redditors (your hyperbole aside).
There’s definitely tons of bots posting and voting (and likely always has been), but I really doubt a large percentage of commenters are bots.

Sadly this is (very popular, according to comments here and on Reddit) copium. old.reddit.com visits are a rounding error, per the traffic stats of the normie subreddit I moderate:
Most people simply do not have the technical acumen and tenure on Reddit to know to type in that subdomain. As always, relevant XKCD (posted today on Lemmy, funnily enough):

At a guess, such cooperation would undermine Lenovo’s profit margin and would thus be a non-starter for them.
Enter government regulation, to pinch corporations by the ear and drag them to doing what’s right for society.
Apparently they need a better rate structure if they’re having to use low-flow laws as a crutch.
