Realistically nothing is stopping them from doing so it’s their own policies which is kinda dumb af. All they’d have to do is prevent ads from brands that don’t want to be associated with it from showing there.
The fact they don’t show advertisements on NSFW subs/posts just tells me their advertising tools and targeting are absolutely sub par.
As a professional marketer and advertiser, that's not correct.
What keeps them from doing it is that most high-dollar advertisers don't want their ads/brand appearing next to NSFW content.
It's probably more difficult for Reddit to filter out NSFW ad impressions rather than just let ads appear anywhere. But advertisers demand it, so they have to do it to get the dollars.
You literally just said I was right and regurgitated everything I said in other words...You just admitted its too hard for them so their system is subpar. They can advertise it would just make less than SFW advertisements.
I had no idea this was going on and I'm so glad someone posted it here! Haven't been back to reddit in a few days, this is fucking hilarious! What a time to be alive. Definitely one for the museum of reddit, if it survives..or we all need to start one as a memorial..
