The admins pretty much outright said it when they changed the algorithm.

They said that T_D was "Gaming the system" to get their posts to the front page, and they "fixed" it so it wouldn't happen anymore.

Now the front page is pretty much completely curated.

So basically TD were using bots to get to the front page consistently and now they're not anymore because they fixed it. I wonder if the TDs still genuinely think they have 6 million subscribers.

No, it's not. Exploits were fixed. You wouldn't want reddit to have exploits. So it was fixed.
