Is Amazon desperate or are engineers on Blind above average?

No day goes by without reading the stories/comments on Blind that someone interviewed at Amazon for fun and got the job. Which better explains this??

I think the LP bs’ing is ridiculously hard. I can’t do it lol
Active Blind engineers are probably better than average, and no one is gonna report "ohh I got rejected in XYZ interview" on social media.
If everyone on here could get into amazon, amazon wouldn't be desperate eh? They pay more than most non-FAANG / non-unicorns / non-HFT types, and that's easily the vast majority of tech jobs by sheer numbers.
Reasons are probably:
1- Lots of openings
2- People like to brag
Flagged by the community.
In general though, the team was great and the interviews were not easy. I ended up not joining 🤷🏿♂️
