It’s mentioned in this really good Verge article about SEO. I don’t think it’s a good sign for Reddit to just allow such blatant spam and makes me think how much subtler spam is out there too.

I’ve personally noticed more a few times in old threads you’ll find a comment made months later that’s recommending a product.

    Sure here’s a list of reasons why you can trust me:

    1. I am human.
    2. I am not a robot.
    3. I can provide different kinds of lists if you need them.
    4. I can sound smart.
    5. … I can also run out of things to say.

    Overall it is good to remember those who can provide you with quality in your life.
