Back in 2015/16, yes, it became obvious that Reddit corporate had sold out and was letting corporate spam bots run the show. Even going so far as to invent being able to 'post' to your own /u/profile instead of subreddits just for corporate spam accounts like /u/washingtonpost to be able to spam the front page without moderation.

I imagine it's only become worse since. Reddit was reddit from 2005-2016. Since then it's just been Facebook refugees and bots.
