As a huge reddit user, this is a quick way to erode my trust and good will. I'm disappointed that they would even A/B test this at all.

- spullara 10y agoAs a huge reddit user, you are probably logged in and won't see this message.
- TwiztidK 10y agoI use Reddit daily, but I don't log in when I browse at work so I ended up getting this message last week. It was dismissed immediately, so I wasn't too irritated (unlike Quora's system which bothers me constantly because their digest emails open in my browser rather than their app, where I am logged in).
- maxerickson 10y agoAn emotionally economical strategy would be to start thinking of reddit as a business. So for instance, if a given strategy is statistically effective, they are quite likely to discard your individual trust and good will.
- whamlastxmas 10y agoIf your trust has not already been tremendously eroded to the point of not using reddit, I doubt anything will.
