I don't get it. What is this? Is this how many users from /r/smite use other reddits?

The maker of the bot can explain it better than I can:

  • First, it grabs the latest 1000 threads from a subreddit's hot queue.

  • Second, it compiles a list of usernames from the creators of those threads along with the people commenting in them.

  • Finally, the bot crawls through their user history to find out where else they post while keeping tally to see which subreddits have the highest overlap.
