Instagram and YouTube can be great sources of content, but lazily linking to your own YT channel or spamming your IG like a button mashing console player is not the way to get more subscribers. Reddit is for karmawhoring, not channel whoring. That is all.

I agree with this, atfirst when I'd post something that would get 100 plus likes it made me think well maybe my IG could get a ton, but then I realized it's idiotic, if you really wanna know my IG it's in my description. If not that's ok, I'm not here to advertise.
Honestly it's not easy to get your videos seen....so, I can't blame them. Just ignore them if you don't care....don't downvote the guy who is just trying to get his shit out there.
This isn't a site to advertise your content, and we don't need an upteenth video of a mediocre launch or a badly recorded cold start. If these people aren't adding to the discussion, the good content, or the fun here, then they're just spreading their garbage with the widest possible range...like a fungus.
Maybe you can't blame them for moldy behavior, but I certainly can.
O yea, maybe the shit content, can go...but the quality ones definitely deserve a pass....If it's shit, it should only be posted thru Reddit and not a link to a YT channel.
Username checks out.
I just ignore the posts you’re talking about.
I generally downvote every one of them and just move on, but recently (I browse new a lot) there's been just enough IG and YT spam to get me to bitch about it. I'm just hoping that if enough people agree, they'll upvote, and the issue will take care of itself without modding.
Worth a shot for sure, but I doubt it’ll make a difference. I noticed one post today in particular that fits your description so I clicked on that username and looked at their posts, and all the posts by that person are like that. Never comments on anything, just posts stuff like that all over Reddit, all day, every day, a few of them in this sub section in last few days. I’m assuming just for Karma since that user never comments, just posts.
