If it wasn't for the AI nonsense, this could've actually been a great idea.

Businesses might want to use Reddit comments as ads.

Reddit says "Hey, let us find those glowing reviews that we have as Reddit comments, and you can link directly to the original source!"

Then the original comment writer could edit their comments to call political figures pedos, and businesses learn their lesson that this kind of stuff is not suited for using Reddit as a primary source, lol

Digitec/Galaxus (local online shop) does this right with user votes.
