If the performance weakness continues for a week or two, the agency would start recommending decreasing spend with Reddit or directing it to other platforms.

After the blackout, we will be closely monitoring user behavior on Reddit and guide clients when we can unpause,” said Freddy Dabaghi, managing director at Stagwell-backed Crispin Porter Bogusky, which has asked clients to stop campaigns, depending on their client goals.

    Same. It’s really struck me both how little I miss it and how much I like the communities here. There’s a much friendlier vibe.

    And for the most part, aside from the bullshit threads where it’s encouraged and expected, the comments are a lot more ‘high-effort,’ which is nice. That’s something that I would expect to tend to naturally go down with the lowest common denominator as user count increases, but we’ll see.

      Yeah, I think the kind of people to drop reddit over this are going to be more my kind of people, if that makes sense.

      Conversation seems deeper, less dominated by repeated jokes.

        The forum wheel spins what the forum wheel wills. It does feel like the start of a new era, and also extremely familiar.

        also you don’t have a karma system homogenizing behavior by making redditors constantly addicted to upcummies

            At least the web UI doesn’t show me my net score if there’s one. And no one seems to care about karma or having a minimum karma to post like on Reddit. It was frustrating making a new account just to post on certain subs and having my stuff removed preemptively. I just hope to never experience that ever again.

              Even on reddit i didn’t care about karma, just posted and commented when i felt like it and where i felt like it.
