It’s mentioned in this really good Verge article about SEO. I don’t think it’s a good sign for Reddit to just allow such blatant spam and makes me think how much subtler spam is out there too.

I’ve personally noticed more a few times in old threads you’ll find a comment made months later that’s recommending a product.

I refuse to go back to Reddit to even look but this is my fear for a long time now. Loosing trust to any conversation in the internet.

Sure here’s a list of reasons why you can trust me:

  1. I am human.
  2. I am not a robot.
  3. I can provide different kinds of lists if you need them.
  4. I can sound smart.
  5. … I can also run out of things to say.

Overall it is good to remember those who can provide you with quality in your life.

Is that the same kind of quality you get in a signature McDonald’s Quarter Pounder? With their locally-sourced beef patties and freshly picked potatoes fried that very same day! Why not wash it down with a tasty Coca-Cola? All of this at an unbeatably low price and served with a smile!

Rainy day? Stuck indoors? For a limited time only, delivery via Uber Eats is completely free, so you can get that iconic taste delivered directly to your door!
