If the performance weakness continues for a week or two, the agency would start recommending decreasing spend with Reddit or directing it to other platforms.

The thing that should scare advertisers the most isn't just the slight dip in revenue, but that those users are moving to ad-free sites. Those impressions are unrecoverable by redistributing spend away from Reddit.

When I check my ublock origin for this site, it says 0 blocked trackers and ads out of 0%. That's so refreshing. I don't think I've seen a website like that in decades.
