Reddit forces personalized ads, starts X-like user payment program

Like it or not, Reddit wants to "improve ad performance."

I left a couple of months ago. Couldn’t be happier.

The writing is on the wall. The leader thinks the Genius-with-hair-transplants is a superstar, despite destroying a globally recognised brand. Inspired by this, Spez is trying to get Reddit ready for an IPO. This means, maximise profits by any means.

    Performance issues, which of course is the issue with federation. Sometimes it was my instance having issues, other times it was the instance I was posting too. One of them defederated from a large one and didn’t allow downvoting, which I would forget via a third party app and it would hang before erroring out.

      Thanks for the info! Yeah, it’s going to take the fediverse in general some time to get smoother. I’m excited to watch it improve even if the pace is slow.
