I'd not take seriously anyone who advertised in that cesspool. 

Compared to X?

I don't go there, either, but at least everyone there is allowed to think for themselves from what I understand.

I find X can have much more pile ons than Reddit. They got rid of all the moderation groups as soon as Elon bought it.

X is appalling. I only use it for posting thirst traps 😂. It’s badly managed.

Reddit and X operate on almost opposite mechanics when it comes to promotion. Reddit is generally better for conversions and long-term search visibility but it is also much harder to promote yourself there without being labeled as spam, downvoted or banned. X users tend to scroll for news, drama, opinions and industry commentary. Reddit users are more likely to actively search for answers, recommendations and solutions to specific problems.

If you provide a genuinely useful answer in the right niche subreddit, that comment can continue generating qualified traffic, leads or sales for months. A strong Reddit thread can also become a valuable SEO asset, especially since Reddit content often appears prominently in Google search results. X works differently. Building an audience from zero can be difficult and usually requires consistently posting, engaging with other accounts and spending significant time building visibility. Posts also tend to have a much shorter lifespan and generally provide less long-term search value. The downside is that Reddit's communities are far less tolerant of obvious self-promotion. On X, the algorithm may simply limit your reach. On Reddit, moderators and users will often make their objections very clear, downvotes, removed posts or outright bans. If your contribution looks like an advertisement rather than a genuinely useful contribution, Reddit will usually let you know very quickly.

That's been my experience. I don't find Reddit an inviting platform, but when I have a specific question, the answer will sometimes appear on a Reddit thread. I've never made a post, though, or created an account.
