Dogecoin is kind of the Redditcoin [0]. This might be one reason, why it is so heavily used. For reddit users, it probably easier to get started with doge than with bitcoin. Since it is seen as fun, (micro) transactions are casually thrown around [1].

supposedly FEDORAcoin or "TIPS" is the most traded or gifted currency within reddit.

This would not show on any external chain monitors like the story source as most of the trading is occurring within reddit; only when a client cashed out to their wallet would the transaction actually touch the blockchain.
