Like any big online presence, Reddit needs to earn revenue to pay for server costs etc, and Reddit is no exception. Advertisers have a set of guidelines they must follow[1] and there are a growing number of online guides[2] available to encourage new corporate style advertising here.

You can’t turn adverts off without having Reddit Premium or using an ad-blocker or third-party Reddit apps such as Apollo or Reddit Enhancement Suite, but there is a way you can tailor those ads to your preference by adjusting your ads personalisation settings[3] in your user profile. That should hopefully change the specific advertising that you see on Reddit. I know at one time we had the option to press a little X on the ad itself to let us hide a specific advert/advertiser but I’m not sure if that still exists or not. There may be more info at r/redditads.

See strange and amusing adverts at r/FunnyCommercials, cool and clever ones at r/AdPorn, lovely old ones at r/vintageads, and r/Adgeek brings you the best that the ad world has to offer - and occasionally the worst. Share the loathing at r/CommercialsIHate, and if you find a cringey advert while scrolling through Instagram or stumble upon a promoted tweet that’s just a bit *too* outside the realm of normality (you know which ones I mean), share the burden at r/CursedAds. Finally, adverts can take on a whole new dimension when they’re placed next to something they really shouldn’t be, and you can see this at r/unfortunateplacement.
