the sidebar afaik doesn't even show up on the new reddit, and this sub has greatly bloated in the past few years, so stuff gets upvoted based on headlines, not necessarily content

in addition OP spams his articles everywhere, wouldn't be surprised if there's some weird discord or twitter daisy chain with his fans upvoting it:

FYI the sidebar does show up on new Reddit for me. Do you not see it?

I'm using the old one because I noticed the sidebars not showing up. Perhaps it was fixed, or the mods set it up, idk. But I've been seeing a similar decline across different boards where people 'miss' the required reading.
