Reddit can take a leap.
AI slop is ruining Internet for everyone*
Reddit ruined Reddit before AI had a chance
Yeah, but now spez allows a full invasion – and AI moderation dropping banhammers on “violent” users – so that he would then sell off the data to anyone willing to pay him millions.
Can confirm.
One of my more ridiculous bans from reddit was “advocating violence” by joking about mosquitoes getting cancer.
Said I would slap someone for jump-scaring me on a video of a jump scare prank where someone was slapped. Permabanned. Even tried to appeal.
I have used Reddit for nearly 15 years, and never once received a ban/suspension, until this past year when I’ve received 3, all triggered by AI moderation.
Not that I’m distraught over them, but it is annoying because I use Reddit specifically for niche sports communities that just don’t exist on Lemmy.
And even those communities are full of bots, so I can only imagine what the mainstream subreddits look like now.
Yeah, but now spelz
Yeah, he is a gigantic piece of shit. And he turned Reddit into a gigantic piece of shit.
Thats why Lenny exists
Yes and no. I’m sure most of the bans from the past year are automated.
Greed ruined reddit, AI was just some shitsauce on top.
So capitalism
Capitalism also made reddit in the first place though. Greed isn’t exclusive to capitalism either.
No, capitalism didnt create reddit. People inspired by DIGG created reddit while living in a capitalist economy.
They’re all just forums with voting, but the salient point was that they were created to make money for the people who started the company.
If their sole motivation was making money they had plenty of way more reliable options for applying their skills than gambling on Digg shitting itself and everyone jumping onto their lifeboat. Capitalism didn’t create Reddit, people laboring under capitalism did.
Another instance of capitalism being shit
Not ruining it for me, just saying.
Would you be willing to admit it’s worse than it was 15 years ago?
Based on the reports by other Lemmy users it sounds like it’s worse.
Deservedly so.
Greedy little fuck boi ruined it
Best sort made reddit unusable for me. Opaque systems for no reason other than revenue makes me irrationally angry.
Yes. The ai. That’s why reddit is bad. The slop. Uh huh.
