I started to notice some thing weird while using Reddit, every link post from Condé Nast owned news outlet was getting a high amount of upvotes and awards while other publications had a very normal rate of awards( usually zero, with the exception of the sponsored ones) and upvotes.
That when I started to investigate this matter till I found out about this.
They are boosting their publications on Reddit on the major subreddits. They are trying to give their publications a advantage over all the other news outlets.
They have the ability to kill the other news outlets if they keep doing that. Avoid them as if your freedom is dependent on it.
Yup, as long as the current staff (by and large) are still at the helm of the Ars orbiting HQ, I’ll continue to go there. I’ve lost too many other good tech news sites in the last decade, I can’t lose another one.
The rest of Conde Nast is hot garbage.
Ars technica is full of shit, too, as soon they’re even slightly off the tech trail. Even while on the tech trail they’re massively untrustworthy as soon as their owners’ interests are involved. I’ve kicked them out of my RSS reader long ago. If they really got something exciting I’ll get to know via slashdot, mastodon or feddit. Still I’m suspicious as I at least one time caught them intentionally spreading false information.
Can you link the false info they spread so others can see it?
I’d also like to see this damning evidence (that I am sceptical will ever be shared)
bahh they are hit and miss sure but also it’s entertaining enough and some of the people getting their star come from the meh work
