This is cool, I wonder why they are using part of the ad rev though. Advertisers want to advertise no matter what, like it's _basically_ just a formula for $ <-> traffic. But I'll bet users would be more pumped to buy each other reddit gold if part of that purchase went to charity.

- humanrebar 13y agoIt sounds like it's to provide an incentive to stop blocking reddit ads.
- hu_me 13y agoits a good idea, making users supportive of advertising by giving some of it to charity. Now people with adblockers might more inclined to add reddit to whitelist.
- pekk 13y agoIf I want to buy someone Reddit Gold, I can easily spend an extra $2 or whatever I want on donating to cause du jour. Having that bundled into Reddit Gold is useless and actually counter-productive, because if Reddit donates to a cause I disagree with I now actually don't WANT to buy Reddit Gold.
