Posting a Patreon link and asking for money is the main problem. Just post 1 social media link. Say hey if you want to check out more of my stuff here's my Instagram or whatever. Just leave it at that.

Posting like 9 links and one being a site whose sole purpose is asking people for money is a bit much.

I just want to browse Reddit for discussions and to watch cool/entertaining things. But each day it gets more and more overtaken by advertisement. I'd like to scroll through subs without feeling like someone is trying to sell me something. Like it or not, that is exactly what is happening here and it's annoying.

It's frankly a pretty ridiculous level of self promotion. They even put up a Patreon link lmao. This isn't about showing off your art for others to appreciate. It's about trying to earn a quick buck and utilizing Reddit as free advertising.
