Rickroll everything.

 

Many years ago I made an account on Mewe (a Facebook alternative). I'm the only person I know on there, so the account basically gets ignored most of the time.

Last week my Mewe account suddenly started getting deluged with friend requests, always from men who are single or widowed and have little or no post history or connections. Obvious romance scammers trolling for bites. I've gotten over thirty of them, after years of no activity. I'm wondering if the timing is coincidental, or is this a sign of rats abandoning the sinking Reddit ship.

Maybe they're a hook for future features?

XD Thanks for looking, I don't feel so clueless at least if others are having trouble finding it!

 

I think I saw this explained when I first created an account, but I can't find it now.
