I’d not be surprised if they would join lemmy to explore this untapped opportunities as well.

So paid manipulation of the sub that was designed to inform users of genuinely good quality products, this probably will be the case for every major subreddit about any consumer product.
Reddit is about to go significantly downhill.

Can someone explain what this means in laymans terms? How will this affect the Reddit user experience?
My interpretation is that you won't be able to trust any advice or recommendations because you'll have no way of knowing if you're reading the words of a genuine person or a well-placed ad. From the business perspective, your ads will be more valuable because it's a "better" way of targeting your market.
I could be wrong, but that's how I read it.
Even more targeted advertising aimed at reddit users.
by tapping into our differentiated value as a hub for actionable conversation
Ugh.... That marketing language makes me cringe hard.

Welp, time to delete my Reddit account, I guess. I thought there was a (small) chance Reddit would come to their senses vis a vis the API, but with this shit, even if they do, who cares?
Thanks, Reddit. It was fun while it lasted.
