Comment on Some people defended Ars Technica in my previous post, here is a proof about how Ars Technica parent company secretly manipulate Reddit for their own benefit.

Pretty much everyone here knows Reddit and Conde Nast are bad for a multitude of reasons, but that does not mean the journalists at Ars are bad at their jobs. They also have nothing to do with any alleged anti-not Conde Nast bias of Reddit mods (I’m not saying it doesn’t exist, but the evidence you posted here is a lot of nothing). People can do good work at shitty companies, and a lot of shitty companies don’t have a hand in day to day operations in companies. Hell, in the US, that is becoming the rule and not the exception. Again, I am not saying Conde Nast doesn’t necessarily have a thumb on the scales at Ars, but you have provided no evidence of that.

And once again, even if we take everything you say as true, the fact remains that the journalists at Ars have absolutely nothing to do with Reddit. The heads of Conde Nast might, and for sure read articles from their outlets with a critical eye, but those are two different things.

Finally, bringing your problems with Reddit to a completely different platform is just silly, especially on Lemmy, and especially especially to Beehaw. If you want to have a bitchfest, that is fine. This just isn’t the place to do it.
