Social Media product links are the new ToDo App: http://hackernewsbooks.com/ http://www.dev-books.com/ http://toptalkedbooks.com/ http://reddittopbooks.com/tech/
Includes a coin-hive mining script.

Their wording is "lack of original content." Affiliates is geared towards bloggers who write posts (such as reviews) about linked products. Mine was nowhere close to that. Some sites skate by with alternatives, but I can see how I need to revise in order to comply with the program. Edit: for example, http://hackernewsbooks.com/ is a site that has been successful with Affiliates. Amazon tends to be a bit moody with th…
Thanks. You are right. The only difference I see between your site and the hackernewsbooks.com site is that the latter also links to a source, like the comment on HN thread that the book reference was scraped from...

A product can still be copied in functionality without being copied in design. The general premise (product recommendations from Reddit) is the same. I also agree my UX is bad. I have been meaning to pivot with all the data I already have but haven't gotten there yet. Not complaining, competition is good. Just giving warning and bringing up discussion.
I searched for laptop (as suggested) and got webcams and other stuff, doesn't really seem curated at all?
Reddit Search can do a similar trick: "subreddit:gadgets site:amazon.com", sorted by "top"[1] It finds only posts, not comments. That's a good thing. Comment karma accounts for a comment's entire content. What if the comment gets upvotes for something other than an Amazon link inside it? Post karma is a bit better in this respect. Reddit Search supports any domain. So you can search any shop. Like vat19.com and etsy.…
Is this a awesome! Is there a resource page on Reddit listing these different kind of queries?

That was on my to-do list for future features. I shipped it very early, and Amazon demonetized me pretty soon after that, so lots of things I wanted to do became useless.
I'm using skimlinks with my project and it seems to work pretty well, though it does take a while to get paid.

Have you tried something like skimlinks/viglink? I think you could use either as a medium to amazon associates and still get paid. I'm using skimlinks with my project and it seems to work pretty well, though it does take a while to get paid.
I'd be curious to see the success of this with Amazon Affiliates, since it is nearly a direct copy of a site I made 2 months ago (that Amazon shut down due to lack of original content). The site is https://fastandes.com (currently at limited functionality).
our site was also rejected from amazon affiliate a couple times due to the same problem, eventually we changed the content and get passed, I wrote a medium post for that, https://medium.com/@guohuang/how-we-got-rejected-from-amazon... so don't give up, just keep trying

I think I've mostly decided that with ThingsOnReddit's new found success, and my loss of interest in my project, I may throw in the towel on it. We'll see if I still feel the same in a few weeks to revamp it in a different manner.
https://thingsonreddit.com/things/r/wallstreetbets?order_by=... Yup, pretty much what I expected.

I'd looked into it as an expansion in the future. Currently my data set was built strictly on Amazon links, so expansion would mean a rebuild/reindex of all reddit posts.
