This is true.

LOL. Our definitions of "high quality" are apparently different.
- elcomet 5y agohigh quality here means "genuine", ie discusions made by real humans and not corporate advertising.
- cyberlurker 5y agoUnfortunately Reddit discussions can be made to look genuine when they are really corporate advertising.
- darknavi 5y agoCertainly, although I find subject-based subreddits are a lot less tolerant of a lot of that BS.
- cyberlurker 5y agoI don’t have a source off hand but I definitely read an article about how Mods are routinely contacted by advertisers. I’m not saying every subreddit is a bunch of corporate shills but we are basically trusting unpaid volunteers to not take payments to look the other way.
