When a community is suggested to you on Reddit, there is an option to see less of it, effectively blocking it from your feed. This had no option like that available, no fly out menu in the app.
I would put something that’s only “funny” because we all agree Biden stole the election amirite, in a different category. It’s like racist jokes; I don’t think the supposed funniness of it makes it suddenly harmless.
Oh, definitely agree with you on that one. I was only defending the right of a platform to suggest content to its users, regardless of what that content is
It’s the Babylon Bee. Not spam, not an ad. Maybe shit, but still
Reddit shows you communities that you are not subscribed to in your subscription feed.
The idea is to show you new communities you might be interested in.
The question is whether it is just doing it on the base of an algorithm or if you can pay to have communities recommended more often
Yeah, like I said, not spam and not an ad. It’s just an internal algorithmic recommendation
It was an ad though. I couldn’t do anything to get rid of it, it wasn’t simply a suggested community post in the app.
An ad is something that a 3d party buys to appear on a platform. This is a recommendation by the platform itself, so I would not define it as an ad
You still do not understand.
