Reddit has launched a new ad format called "free-form ads" that resemble posts made by users. The format allows advertisers to combine images, videos, and text in ready-made templates to maximize engagement. However, the move has received mixed reactions from users who may not appreciate ads that blend with regular posts. Reddit's testing found that the new format outperformed other ad types in terms of click-through rates and community engagement.
