If the performance weakness continues for a week or two, the agency would start recommending decreasing spend with Reddit or directing it to other platforms.
After the blackout, we will be closely monitoring user behavior on Reddit and guide clients when we can unpause,” said Freddy Dabaghi, managing director at Stagwell-backed Crispin Porter Bogusky, which has asked clients to stop campaigns, depending on their client goals.

I honestly think I'd prefer that they just let me pay them outright rather than trying to use me as bait for advertisers. The expectation that everything should be free leads to what we see today
meh, good point but i'd prefer some reasonably placed ad (not like those website that have 99% ad and 1% content) instead of paying for something that maybe i'll never use again
Yea I wouldn't mind If some of these instances had like one stickied post at the top for a paid ad If that was enough to pay for most of these server costs
I agree with you.
