Did you not stop for one second there and said, wait a minute, that could just be a bot-reply? I wrote a blog yesterday about me failing at Steemit for the simple reason that I can't read and follow everyone who writes great content, there's just too much great stuff here (but also a lot of 'meh' material). So I use some automation..
I think an automated reply on this specific post is just exactly what it needed for that extra little punch. Interesting, right?
Right!
