yikes. We've been seeing alot of advertisers sneaking into discussion forums and stackoverflow posts lately. I wonder how much more astroturfed engagement is coming from advertisers.
- wheybags 4y agoI think they mean actual platform ads, not ads posing as posts from normal users. That said, I do think writing genuinely interesting tech articles on a company blog and posting them on Reddit/hn is a totally legit and effective method. The quality needs to be there though.
- tmp_anon_22 4y agoMost tech-adjacent subreddits (even sports subs) have tech products advertising for my user. Now a lot of this could be based off my activity as a user, I'm subbed to a few programmer subs that I could get targeted through. That said all the ads tend to be from large vendors that seem to be targeting very senior engineering leadership. Not sure how great thats going for them.
