    They still serve ads on old Reddit, so you’re still giving them money and metrics. Really depends on why you left Reddit in the first place

      What if you run an adblocker and never see ads? Then to me the only way you are contributing to Reddit income rather than costing them money is by commenting and voting.

        Even just being on the website boosts their monthly active users number which they can use to convince advertisers to buy ad space.
