Why is Boost still working?

    The only thing I’ll be giving Reddit is my traffic,

    Just to bear in mimd that traffic is the metric that they use when selling to advertisers. Not criticising you, just pointing it out.

      Traffic quality plays a big role too. If you never click on or engage with any ads your visits aren’t worth much anyway. You could even vpn yourself from a poor country and be considered even less valuable to the ad machines lol
