There’s a rule banning “self-preferencing.” That’s when platforms push their often inferior, in-house products and hide superior products made by their rivals.

Spaz isn't going to like this.

He wouldn't if it applied to him. Unfortunately, reddit is not a gatekeeper in the sense of the DMA and due to its management it's also unlikely to ever reach that position :)

You're right. Hopefully they will expand the rules to include non-gatekeeper services like Reddit once the rule is in effect.
