Reddit, AI spam bots explore new ways to show ads in your feed
#For sale: Ads that look like legit Reddit user posts
“We highly recommend only mentioning the brand name of your product since mentioning links in posts makes the post more likely to be reported as spam and hidden. We find that humans don’t usually type out full URLs in natural conversation and plus, most Internet users are happy to do a quick Google Search,” ReplyGuy’s website reads.
So… is it safe to assume reddit is suppressing it and handing out bans?
I would be more surprised if they weren’t.
Pretty sure they really don’t like ads they don’t make any money from.
I would think the other way around. Complaints get you banned. They got a history of supressing negitive stories and running bots in secret.
