I would argue this is more damaging than most things for places like Lemmy. The wrong people pick up the communities and just abandon them or completely mismanage them. Can’t be helped though.

I’m doing it to drive traffic to communities I run (and the platform in a more general sense). I’m not a bot, I don’t care about personal upvotes or boosts. Small reddit-like sites need content.

I said steam storefront, so I don’t mean specifically asking for a subscription service. I mean if I want to watch a TV show now, I have to subscribe to a service. There’s no option to buy it digitally in most cases.

True, but this is also because there’s no Steam Storefront option for people who like to watch TV.
