My take is that stuff like this counts on traffic being a flash in the pan. At first, it’s funny and novel, but as time wears on the hope may be that people stop engaging with funny sexy Oliver photo #93848. Hypothetically this would cause a drop in traffic and engagement, but still leave the mod team strictly in compliance with reddit’s demands.
Advertisers don’t just look at traffic numbers when they do buys … anyone with any brains will be looking at content and THIS kind of thing will send them running.
Mods are in revolt. Users have fled the platform. And advertisers don’t like to be associated with nastiness.
u/spez is in bigger and bigger trouble each and every minute this continues. Hence the Brown Shirt tactics…
