Reddit tracks which links are posted on which subreddits, so if an admin or bot at reddit decides that a link is verboten then it'll remove all links to it from all subreddits at once. For once the mods might not be to blame.

beep by grandpa posted:remember to resist the urge to QT/reply dunk on these kinds of bluecheck tweets since these insects literally make money from engagement now Only from engagement by other bluecheck-havers, I believe? Maybe that changed more recently than I last saw. Embeds will never make the tweeter money in this model even if they remove the bluecheck-viewer restriction, though, because it’s based on ads displayed in the replies, and embeds don’t show ads. (For now?!?) Clicking fewer Twitter links is a fine goal for anyone, to be sure, but don’t worry that you accidentally put a few cents in that rear end in a top hat’s pocket unless you’re one of the 800K people paying for blue.

Yeah I was gonna say some goons are extremely whiney & handwringey in an isufferably douchey way about not in-lining tweets in the Elon thread but as far I know yes most if not all actually revenue comes from bluecheck engagement, so engaging with it on the site via QT/replies could push it into more bluecheck feeds for $$$. In-lining it on websites afaik the worst it could do is push a bluecheck account closer to its 5mil impressions per month by a couple hundred (the 5mil/mo which would greenlight them for revenue sharing). But I don't really see an issue in-lining twitter links. But drat some goons are loving annoying about it if you do. Not here though thankfully.

The bigger problem, especially for threads like this, is that sometimes assholes realize they've publicly stepped on a rake and delete the tweet. Screen capping the idiocy is the recommended thing in the TFR "racists and assholes in the firearms industry" thread because it happens a lot: some waste of skin tweets something shockingly racist, transphobic, etc. and then realizes that maybe that wasn't a good idea when their business starts getting flak for it.

They've done sponsor spots for Build Redux. I don't think there is any investment from the LMG side.

Worth noting that Chong rose to prominence by being an early adopter of gamergate. Also like others have said he's one of Musk's hand picked twitter blue payees so he has been posting like crazy trying to get eyeballs. He's even doing the milquetoast open ended question tweets that tends to get a lot of engagement when posted by others.

Its worth remembering that advertisers can promote videos with their name attached to it, Taki Udon did a whole video about it after JSAUX pushed one of his videos like it was an advert for them. So if you do a positive review for a product, the company can then promote that video like it was a sponsored video with direct product purchase links attached. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpc8eiGEU7E

Insurrectionist posted:Yeah the most depressing thing has been following reddit links over the past few days and seeing how many more LTT apologists are upvoted to the top today compared to after the initial GN video and right after Madison first came out. Like the one about the office meeting clip is just 'sounds like a normal company meeting I don't get it' even on the post about Madison's twitter comments singling out the issues with specific phrasing in the meeting... Felt like the posts there were 100% making GBS threads on Linus 36 hours ago. The normal decent people post once and say "this is gross I'm not gonna watch LTT anymore" (may or may not follow through), then wander off to pay attention to more important things. The rear end in a top hat chuds keep posting over and over, until everyone else gives up so they can feel like they've won. beep by grandpa posted:Yeah I was gonna say some goons are extremely whiney & handwringey in an isufferably douchey way about not in-lining tweets in the Elon thread but as far I know yes most if not all actually revenue comes from bluecheck engagement most if not all revenue comes from elon deciding to throw cash at his fascist friends from So TBQH don't bother worrying about it, because there's zero correlation between dropping a sick burn on ant-man, twitter's actual revenue, and how much money elon will sugar-daddy onto halfwits.
