So I checked out reddit after a long time and was going through the top of r/videogames subreddit and I could clearly see a pattern in most of the posts there. Posts were mostly like “what game ______ for you?” or “what game _____ like this?” Now I could be wrong but it doesn’t feel ‘organic’ (if that’s correct way to put it). It’s like these are put up intentionally. Thoughts?

    I agree. There are very few places I will tolerate ads. On my PC, I block them all. If a website manages to sneak one through, I usually close the tab immediately.

    When I visit my family, they watch live TV and it’s so jarring to see how much advertising they sit through.

    On public transit, I can’t really avoid ads either, unfortunately. I can ignore them, but I can’t not see them.

      When I see ads in public or at a friends house, I feel like they are sucking my soul away.

      It is very jarring. Also the fact they compress the ever living fuck out of them and the volume is 30% louder than the show
