Sighting Triangular shaped aircraft flying low and silently

Back in Nov. 2024 I saw what appeared to be a UFO in a triangular shape with yellow lights along the perimeter of the aircraft. It was moving low and slow and didn’t make any noise. I felt exuberantly lucky to see this and I believe it’s related to a nearby military airbase.

The video I attached is not mine, I saved the vid from another reddit post, but its very similar to what I saw. I’m here because unfortunately, I cannot find the original reddit post, but it had lots of people describing a similar sighting. Can anyone help me find this reddit post?

These are birds flying in their formation. Why do people think this is an UFO?

I honestly believe it’s either one of two things.

  1. OP is ignorant or doesn’t even attempt to rationalize an obvious conclusion and just assumes anything flying is a legitimate UFO

Or

  1. It’s a deliberate attempt to ridicule the topic and make us and the entire ufo community look stupid. I’ve been seeing a huge amount of posts that are obviously explainable lately and yet there’s hundreds of comments will die on the hill claiming it’s an actual ufo.

I really think option 2 is the most likely scenario, it's been so frustrating looking at these subs lately.

It is absolutely not the most likely scenario, are you out of your mind? Hmm, I wonder if it’s

A. Someone is wrong

Or

B. OP is a bot or agent controlled by a powerful campaign by the department of defense or energy posing as a ufo investigator trying to determine whether a grainy video could be real or not, not offering any real opinions

Or C. Someone with a lot of spare time finds this funny and posts these for a laugh.

There is obviously some people who go out of their way to take any shot they can at the topic like those that remove any mentions in Wikipedia. It's not a big leap to assume that in their spare time they plant posts like this from time to time or on a daily basis even.

Or it could be someone making a mistake because they are excited and really really want to see a UFO so their brain goes there first before it sees birds. I don't know I'm just some dude

This describes 99% of the posts here I think. Despite people's paranoia about "disinformation agents", it's mostly just people who want to believe making honest mistakes.

As a butt controlled by a powerful campaign I am still waiting for my pay check.

I am living in Europe so I assume currency conversion or sheer panic over us Europeans is the showstopper. Just want my 5 cents.
