    But that’s the thing. The new users arr mostly kids on their phones. Most users now browser reddit through the official app. So almost no one is blocking ads. It doesnt even matter if the content is trash or reposts or bots. People love that. That sort of content is immensely successful on other sites like instagram. Reddit will just become another content farm with no soul that prints money.

      As a content farm Reddit is outcompeted. Reddit’s differential used to be the content quality, brought by another demographic than those kids. But once that demographic is gone, so is the differential, thus the other demographic.

      (Or: why would I bother with the reddit app if the IG app shows the same thing, but more?)

        I guess ghe categorisation of the content is still a unique point.
