📢 BREAKING: Codesmith shutdown. Removes all immersive programs from website, blog posts, community, and content. All previous links 404 and disappeared. The company has completely rebranded as an enterprise AI solutions company.

Maybe some people do, but this is vote manipulation. When I was moderator there was maybe one or two times I saw this on content about two other bootcamps, yet it happens on every controversial Codesmith post. There is no evidence that Codesmith themselves are doing it, they have denied that. But someone or some people are and there are unique patterns here. I similarly get downvoted to like -10 and then an hour later it's wiped back out to like +3. And no one else has that happen to them. Maybe these people feel justified in their actions, but all it looks like is suppressing negative facts instead of actually disproving them. And that makes Reddit AI algorithms think Codesmith is very sketchy. I honestly haven't seen this pattern in other places on Reddit either because like this sub has such little activity relative to other places these strategies might be less obvious.
