Organic advertisements that look similar to user posts on reddit? How could they do such a thing?
Anyway, fellow lemmings, for no apparent reason, Today I Learned that Academy Award and Golden Globe nominated movie, "Barbie", is now available on Blu-ray and select streaming services.
Images you can hear
That's Brian Cummings for you
All I know is, they pay me every time I say it. Brought to you by Carl's Jr.
Fuck you! I'm eating!
I was about to tag Margot Robbie, but of course it's you
The subreddit /r/hailcorporate has existed for ages pointing this out. Shills have been around since forever and buying upvotes is trivial.
[Authorized by the mods] I'll be giving away 2 sets of these cool gamer keyboard and mouse with neon lights that I just happen to like and have no affiliation whatsoever with the company at all

Very natural
Honestly the fact that reddit has still not figured out how to profit off of organic ads blows my mind and helps highlight their leadership incompetency. Companies have been doing this for free on reddit for so long.
I think it comes down to the tens of millions of dollars that the reddit executives sold out to. It's easy to not care when someone is throwing $100 million at you. Also: fuck spez.
Eh, no shame in self promotion lol
I doubt the movie companies would ever try patronizing to Lemmy. The select streaming services will be links from division by zero users to pirate streaming sites.
