Paywalling the API and therefore killing 3rd party apps killed reddit.. banning anyone with an opinion killed reddit..

I thought the whole point of reddit was it was self moderating, downvotes slip from view but yeah after being banned for saying a word as offensive as Brexit and once again for saying a song title.

Yeah Reddit is garbage and the unneeded mods made it that way.

oh no

I regret wasting all those years trying to fight back all the bots I flagged on that hot garbage platform.

But I'm grateful that I gained skills on how to identify an LLM bot from a mile away.

Now that they're starting to creep in Lemmy, I'm prepared.

It's ruining far more than reddit.

Did spez change his name to AI?

Reddit was ruined long ago, this just accelerates the decline.

It’s ruining everthing it touches. Reddit is far from the only victim of that garbage.

It were already infested with Capitalist slop, marketing and propaganda. It was an market religious, propagandized garbagedump for a long long time before AI.. The sooner that Capitalist brain-rot disappears the better.

'AI slop' is just an extension of normal 'Capitalist slop' - garbage that have zero purpose outside a market battlefield..

spez is ruining reddit for everyone.

and venture capitalists.

all clankers should be segregated from society

lmfao no, corporate greed and "shareholder value" is ruining both AI and reddit (and pretty much everything else) for everyone.

Default subs were already heavily astroturfed garbage. Smaller subs still generally fly under the radar, for now at least.

What, did /u/spez change his name to /u/AI_Slop?
