They make them money because:

  • they use reddit
  • spez gets some nice usage stats to show off
  • as a direct consequence, advertisers keep paying to put their ads
  • also as a direct consequence, investors' confidence in reddit continues to recover; there's a real possibility that, when it IPOs, it will actually go for a decent price

Now, if enough people go commit ad-block, and advertisers somehow become wise to that fact... then maybe it will hurt reddit's bottom line (at which point spez will start trying to emulate youtube's anti-ad stuff).

But as it stands, especially if most of reddit's usage is through reddit's mobile app... I'm not really sure how you can block ads there.
