[P] I just can't get over the absurd level of astroturfing on Reddit. I mean, I get it from the perspective of the owners of Reddit—they get nice, fat payouts to look the other way—but it's just... how isn't this talked about more? Reddit's gone full dead Internet. The only catharsis I've had recently is with Subnautica, where the MOMENT Krafton lost their case against the Unknown Worlds founders? Gues what happened.

[P] But why bother? I'm sure it's much more profitable for Reddit's execs to look the orher way. "So, if you DON'T notice our astroturfing, we'll keep our huge ad campaign going!" The problem with this though is that all hype on Reddit is starting to look fake. I see cases of subreddits being really positive about content, but then fan forums being really negative about it. It's so hard to trust anything I see on Reddit now.
