    Reddit’s policy changes have made it clear that providing a platform for the spread of disinformation is a central part of its current business model

    I left reddit years ago, what are these policy changes that you’re talking about and how do they relate to spreading “disinformation”?

      My take: removing API access and banning mods who protested saying that this would centralize tooling (removing 3p access), plus banning users who mentioned Musk or Luigi as “violent” are clear indicators that they are disinformation sympathetic, despite the primarily “left wing” seeming content that remains. Also a lot of promoted content is disinformation, as can be seen in minutes of browsing.
