But this isn’t really evidence that they are.

So what you meant was: this isn’t enough evidence to change my mind. That is a very different statement. I think this doesn’t prove anything but it does support op’s previous claims Reddit boosts Ars Technica content.

This isn’t showing Reddit is shitty, it is showing it is used by it’s parent company to influence the media landscape. That is not just shitty, it is amoral and can be very dangerous when it comes to political pieces.

Tech companies are using media companies to shape the world to their liking, just like robber barrons and aristocrats used to.
