Yes, but it’s a feature, not a bug.
It’s a super low investment and quick way to identify people you should avoid.

I would ask a different question - is Mr. Beast a good role model for the kids or not? Whether he’s a “good person” or not is largely irrelevant, the fact is he is doing good.
Personally I’m a big fan of his philathropy, but I don’t think he makes for a good role model. He’s found a way to influence and doing good for the world, but I don’t think it’s easily replicable nor should kids try to emulate him - because to be Mr. Beast, you need to be in the influencer / clout-chasing game, which can have roads that lead to success but at the end of the day, it’s an endless game of trying to get eyeballs and capture attention.
I would encourage the kids to forge their own path and not necessarily emulate Beast, but try to make the types of impact he makes in the world.
Sure, and Lemmy existed prior to the “Reddit exodus”, so people like Lemmy too.
Maybe enjoy Lemmy for what it is, before trying to bend and twist it into Reddit’s image? Why not consider it a fresh start.
Why are so many people rushing to turn Lemmy into the next Reddit?
Why would they be depressed and miserable? They’ve had a fantastical thing happen to them, once in a lifetime, even if it’s for a short little while.
Besides, the rats can just do what humans do when faced with mortality - pass down the torch.
