I think it's a smart and awesome decision.
Curated reddit. It solves so many problems and can offer a lot of value to everybody.
- People who want "clean" and moderated reddit get what they want,
- advertisers get what they want,
- and, hopefully, reddit users get what they want(because there will be less pressure to moderate reddit.com).
At the very least they will capture all the value that buzzfeed and other bad blogs are currently taking from reddit.
Everybody wins.
- adrusi 11y agoHardly any will be captured by this new venture. This is in competition with clickbait sites and internet culture sites like 9gag. At best it will capture some lurkers.
- pjc50 11y agoless pressure to moderate reddit.com I very much doubt it; the pressure to moderate harder comes from within redditors as well whenever the toxic subreddits leak.
- cuchoi 11y agoI feel that this can disincentivize commenting. I am probably going to be a user of Upvoted, taking me out of Reddit where I comment when a story compels me to do it. If there is more people like me, you will reduce your commenting user base.
