Reddit's latest transparency report reveals a notable reversal in copyright takedown trends. After years of increases, the platform removed just over 550,000 items last year due to copyright complaints, down sharply from roughly 1.2 million removed in 2023. Notably, Reddit keeps an eye on potential overreach; it declined to remove an AI-generated sports parody, deeming it transformative fair use.

Users are probably reporting less too since mods are useless now after the API debacle resulted in many of the ones who gave a shit getting ousted or neutered.

I certainly stopped bothering since they fully committed to becoming a (n even bigger) cesspit.
