No, individual vote fuzzing started years ago, and is a separate factor. This is new. What I am speaking of started within the last year, and involves the percentage upvoted to not dip below a certain threshold. To reiterate:
On old Reddit if you look up in the upper left of a post, it will give you a “% upvoted” figure, and that’s what I was referring to, just so we’re clear.
I use Old Reddit myself (you can see my link in OP was an Old Reddit link).
I was not aware of manipulation of the percentage beyond the effect vote fuzzing would have on it (e.g. if you had 5000 upvotes + 1000 fake ones, and 500 downvotes + 1000 fake ones, this would affect the percentage)
