In-between comments are ads.

It’s a real shit experience on Reddit right now.
They really leaned hard into the fraud strategy, hoping to IPO in 2023 and run with the money.
It got to the point where the entire front page was just bots reposting the greatest hits, with the comments section literally being bots reposting comments from the first time it was posted. There were entire comment chains of bots just having reposted conversations with each other.

Obligatory recommendation for uBlock Origin and Firefox :)
