Reddit refugee with a question

Hello all,

I hope I don't incur too much flak for this post, but I have been wondering about how reddit profits from its users. I left reddit mobile along with most everyone else when RIF went down, but since then I've still been browsing reddit on desktop with uBlock origin. So they aren't getting ad revenue from me, but I do occasionally make comments. Aside from the principle of still contributing to reddit when I know I shouldn't be, is it possible that doing so still earns revenue for reddit?

Thanks friends

  • they don't get ad revenue from you, they get it from the firms they will be selling your data to. If you are commenting and you have a profile then whatever info they have or can guess about your demographic will be monetized.
