What is up with Reddit lately ? Feed is nearly 40% recycled dung.

I sub several subreddits and my feed, sorted by New, is proliferated by week-old debris. I don't track who was the OP but I've seen this shit. It ain't new in any sense of the word. The posts contain the same comments that were there when I'd first seen it with zero additional engagement. Typically 5-6day old shit.

Is there no new content ? What even IS "new" ? Is this just clanker puke coming back up ?

WTF Reddit, you're spiraling down the drain even worse than I remember last years' spiraling.

There should be a "Newest" feed option on Reddit where reposts are omitted.

Just because some bot schralped up some five year old semi-forgotten posts or some basement-dwelling karma farmer saw a bunch of updoots on a post it is NOT part of this new newest feed option. Any detected bot activity is also mod-banned, repeat offenders are pantsed and sent to the Russian front.

3 1/2 yr old new generator question.

Purchased awhile ago and have not added oil and it is stored indoors. Is there any additional prep I should do before adding oil and gas and starting it ?

It may continue to sit as is for however long until needed for power outage(s). Was thinking of turning it upside down for a minute to distribute whatever factory oil is in its innards. Is there any downside to not adding oil and fuel ?

I'm thinking that having oil and fuel in it and just sitting there is not necessarily optimal due to the decay of both.

Thoughts ?
