Over the last few months I've noticed a significant uptick in usernames with the same format:
[Adjective/Adverb]-[noun]-[number]
I've casually tried to find a pattern in post types, karma farmed, how old they are, comment content, etc, but without doing some coding and data-gathering I can't see any common patterns.
However, the proliferation of what appears to be auto-generated bot usernames has me wondering, is there an app or something that creates usernames as you sign up with this pattern? Am I crazy?
edit: Apparently that's how reddit suggests new usernames. Guess it's been a while since I've signed up for a new account, thanks everyone!
