Upvoting your own material is a Michael Scott thing to do.

People don't get the technicalities of syncing so much data. And I'm not even talking about the costs.

Imagine the face of your sysadmin when you tell him that you're gonna run a carbon copy of Threads on his infrastructure. They haven't seen the size of the archive of reddit.

One day it would be fun to talk about the costs though.

"Please keep working for us for free" --reddit

What’s so bad about giving AI models something to learn on?

From a user point of view? A lot. So far the AI has made itself the champion of the creation of fake. Fake news, fake pictures, fake videos, fake history, fake identity. Do you think that the AI will be used for your own good? Do you think that your private data are farmed for you own good? I don't.

I posted an example about fake identities and fake posters on Twitter. This is the end goal. This is where the money generated by the AI will come from.

That way you could detect and address rogue scrubbers while still working with LLM creators who are open to an honest training integration. And if your company can’t really detect the difference between users and LLM crawlers after implementing something like this, well, then those crawlers don’t really affect the company as much as the CEOs would like to pretend.

Twitter and Reddit probably want to be their own LLM creators. They don't want to leave this market to another LLM. Also it doesn't take a lot of API calls to generate the content that will astroturf your product.

Anyway the cat is out of the bag and this data will be harvested. The brands will astroturf their products using AI processes. People are not stupid and will realize the trick played on them. We are probably heading toward platforms using full authenticated access.

If we want the fediverse to replace Reddit then either

We don't want the fediverse to replace reddit. Specially in term of popularity. What made reddit collapse in quality is the amount of people on the platform. The 3rd party app thing was only a trigger for many people. Many others have seen the quality of the content of reddit nosedive with time. The festival of memes and one liners has been described again and again. We didn't have this during those few weeks here. We will have it if the platform becomes too popular. How could it be otherwise? How can you picture a popular platform without the popular content? The platform filtering through some hurdles is a good thing.

Even now you can already see the bad behavior of redditor being reflected in the content. And it's only starting.

People have to come out of interest. Otherwise your platform will be filled with 1-click meme posters, and that's probably not what you want.

Doesn't matter. For one person like you there are 20 other who will just spam/downvote.

No. Look at the image again, we don't have the instance of the user.

also it's just a comment with someone's opinion. what is the issue exactly

It's a motivation speech. Add a parrot and you have an "advice animals". Have you not noticed how reddit became this repository of snapshot of Tweets and tiktioks? That's what you want?

You can't comprehend it because you are not a "global leader".

Not really. People have been complaining about him for very long but reddit did nothing.

They only took action after THEY were personally bothered. They use the word "community" a lot but they don't understand what it means.

There is a high demand for scripts involving the package PRAW.

Why call it pessimistic? You dodged a bullet here, you surfed the wave when it was at the top, now it's time to move to another wave.
