It might be important to point out how pervasive clickbait content has become.
Even reputable journalists have to let their work become Clickbaity by their editors (title and headline mostly).
Despite all their efforts and super "AI" tools, YouTube is full of irrelevant clickbait whenever searching for something.
All that just to get a pinch from the advertising money pit.
Paying moderators and redditors will likely kill whatever vestiges are left of reddit.
Moreover, altruistic behavior tend to shun/shy away from paid work (it's a totally different mindset).
I've even seen this when searching for technical questions on Google/DDG. And it always seems like the video most closely related to what I'm trying to learn leads to this one guy literally saying (not literally ) "thumbs up, coment, subscribe, patreon" then posts an actual screenshot of a stackoverflow thread that I read through minutes prior. Infuriating.
I am Happy to find things I feel will bring good to the world.
