Reddit is a social news aggregation, web content rating, and discussion website. Users can submit content which is then voted up or down by other users. The more upvotes a post gets, the more popular it becomes. Reddit was founded by Steve Huffman and Alexis Ohanian in 2005.
Reddit Ads are a self-serve platform that allows advertisers to reach Reddit's audience of more than 330,000,000 monthly users. This self-service platform offers targeting options for different Reddits and subreddits and the ability to exclude certain subreddits or target only specific ones.
The problem with having Reddit ads enabled is that they can be a distraction for the user. It can also lead to unintentional clicks on ads.
If you are using Reddit as a marketing platform, then you should disable the ads on your account. This will help you avoid any distractions and make sure that your target audience is not clicking on ads by mistake.
