“We’ve known for over a decade that people come to Reddit to talk about the products they love – take r/BuyItForLife for example, a community of over 1.5 million redditors who have been sharing recommendations and advice about their lifelong, must-have purchases since 2011. These updates will uplevel the search-and-discover experience for both brands and our users by tapping into our differentiated value as a hub for actionable conversation”

I’d not be surprised if they would join lemmy to explore this untapped opportunities as well.

Nah, lemmy is way too small for them, and it has the wrong kind of users.

Quite a few instances have a "no advertising" rule, so theoretically if a user joins and their entire post and comment history is plugging products from a biased perspective (outside of ~~a~~ communities dedicated to said products) they'd probably end up with an admin warning or ban
