While this is funny, I think this will actually increase traffic to the Reddit, hence increase ad revenue?
Unless they put a link to go somewhere else for the content users are actually looking for to redirect traffic, I don’t think this will do a whole lot.
I much prefer how Lemmy approaches this; upvote and downvote count per comment, no tally of total points.
Way less people trying to Karma farm then and repost content for fake internet points that don’t mean anything.
