Yeah, about that whole "human discussion" thing...
Yeah, about that whole "human discussion" thing...
And never use the internal search, I don’t know what gp is talking about. Reddit’s search is terrible.
These days at least 90% of product-related discussions on Reddit are astroturfed, though, and that's for sure.
The main problem, among many others, is that it's far too easy to game the upvote/downvote system with bots, and most pros have bot networks of their own, or know how to hire them. The second problem is that Reddit "karma" is site-wide, which means that most "high karma" accounts that are sold on secondary markets are very useful for digital marketing purposes generally. The third problem... well... I could go on all day. Reddit's system is horrendous if you're looking for human discussion and unbiased advice.
