They actually plan on ads being tuned out, it's more about choking out the presence of competitors than it is actually convincing the audience that their product is worth while; y'know, like a weed.
Either way, I don't fall for it because I just make sure to type in "Reddit," right after my search for a product I want so that I get honest human reviews and not ads. ๐
Lolz who is going to tell orioler25?
Do you people actually need "/s" to not be annoying? I added the fucking smug face and everything.
I'm with you, I refuse to use it. If my comment gets downvoted because of that, then so be it.
Why try to be funny only to immediately compromise it?
I think it also depends on context. If you're being "sarcastic" about something that could be harmful to someone if genuine, then it's better to make that clear and avoid potentially doing that harm. In this case, I'm making fun of Reddit and ads, no harm done.
