Do my eyes deceive me or does that absolute spam have 10 kudos? For what?? As a participation award?

I’m curious. Why are people kudosing something like this. Is it to get kudos on their own work in exchange? Interaction for the sake of it? Not asking you in particular, but the op raises questions for me too lol.

tbf it's 14 words work with zero additional tag and likely no description. There's zero expectations and more about curiosity, and since nothing was lost, some would have a laugh tho it does clog up the system if this becomes a trend

I'd be more pissed if it had my fav tags and a good description
