    We get posts here too, and on Reddit

    The posts here get reported and removed very quickly, sometimes within minutes of the account being created or the first post.

    I searched Reddit for the website they were linking and saw the spam posts on Reddit have been up for months.

    Few possible differences:

    • We have a better ratio of users/moderation, where the lower volume of posts means everything can go through human moderators

    • Our users are more actively trying to keep the platform good by reporting spam

    • The incentive here is to create a good online platform. The inventive there is profit. The priorities are different as a result
