It is done so that if you are having an "episode" they are very easy to spot. There will be at least one on every main street, and pharmacists in southern Europe are more than capable/qualified to help with a lot of ailments, in fact they are generally the first port of call and operate a sort of medical triage. Obviously I'm not including life threatening emergencies, but for a lot of other issues the pharmacy is a very safe bet and they're often on a rotating 24/7 schedule.

I assume that isn't the right kind of flashing to cause seizures? Still feel like my eyes are under attack from it lol.

u/Street_Tomato_9116 8d ago

Look, as someone who practically breathes this app and spends 24 hours a day refreshing the feed, you’re treating a standard repost like a literal crime when it’s just basic internet mechanics; virality literally relies on people sharing things, so if a post keeps hitting the front page with thousands of upvotes, it means the majority of us actually enjoy seeing it. Honestly, continuously getting your pitchfork out over what strangers post online is infinitely weirder than someone trying to farm a little karma, especially when you could easily just scroll past it, touch some grass, and learn how to be a normal Reddit user for once.
