i stopped missing them when i found this place
Cutting into their margins eh?
because their own mods are ai bots
“Hear hear” god damnit
I’m never going back to reddit
I thought public API access ended years ago?
Only for us plebs providing reddit with free high-quality content.
How sad that Aaron Swartz was there for the creation of RSS and Reddit. Like spitting on his grave by removing access to data and putting up walls.
Sooo Reddit is doing this to get rid of bots… except the only users they have left are bots… weird.
Their automated filters seem to be designed to ban people and leave bots. 🤭
That feeling when you get banned from a community cause you typed in “Im a Black man” and the auto mod banned you for the world “Black”…
Obligatory Fuck Spez
Fuck that twat. He did get me off of reddit, so credit there.
Greedy little pigboy
Don’t fuck Spez actually, there’s no doubt in my mind he’s a terrible shag.
Fuck Spez
Good. Quit using corporate social media.
Reddit never gave a shit about bots. To them it’s something that pumps up their active users numbers to woo their investors. They’re only doing this so they can force people to view their ads that are designed to look like posts.
Who goes on Reddit nowadays anyway?
I’m banned
Permanently
You are banned for this comment which you can’t see
Bastards!
From enshittified to literal shit. Now they even self-isolate that shit. Good. It will stink a bit less on the net. 🤭
A mild realization just hit me. Reddit used to come up in daily conversation, even with randos. Now when I mention it nobody even knows what it is, and those that do remember it… speak of it only as this vague place they used to go years ago. “Oh yeah I remember reddit”
E: fyi I’m talking roughly circa 2008-2013 when every last bricklayer, sewer technician, and 7-Eleven worker “found” the platform
Reddit never came up in daily conversation for me. It came up only occasionally, and it actually seemed to do so more often after it went public.
It was a weird coincidence
Extra hilarious because they just invested so much in ads to try and rope in every day people.
Yeah…
AI bots….
That’s why.
its clearly a combination of shitty decisions frrom the executives at reddit, the mods, the massive invasionn of bot users and restricting API access.
Reddit is killing
RSS feeds and ending public API access because of AI botsitself.Digg’ing their own grave.
Classic critical hit lol
reddit dies more every day than the day before and it’s already long dead
