Was recently browsing Reddit and noticed a new type of ad which pops up in between comments now. It used to be a few ads in between posts and you would get an ad as the top comment when you click on a post, but now they’re injecting ads in between comments when you are even scrolling comments lol. When do you think this will start having an effect on regular people? Do you think the enshittification will slow down or come to a halt if these companies start losing revenue due to lost customer base?
This is laughably desperate. I laugh but I’m sure that swine CEO also laughs. Reddit made a complete 180° turn.
In a sort of philosophical way, the very commenters themselves are often ads. Like second-hand smoke, second-hand advertising works its way through social groups. More strongly among those who are over socialized. Reddit users for example.
