Comment Re:I gave up when they killed anonymous "old" acce (Score 1) 85

Ditto. I was a fairly prolific Redditor for the past decade, and stopped cold-turkey the day they stopped allowing anonymous access to Old.

That said, that was just the final straw. Reddit has been going downhill for a few years now - Right around the same time bots outnumbered the humans, and AI has only sped that up by an order of magnitude. The "Dead Internet" is already here.

Not to mention Reddit's moderation has become so blatantly partisan it's impossible to discuss anything but the most banal of topics. Even mentioning I/P without strongly suggesting we'd really love to fellate Bibi for his greatest hits (and not on schools and hospitals) is all but a guaranteed timeout.

Reddit was a great site, as close to an all-topic old-school forum as we could ask for. "Was".

I asked google the same question 3 times, and got 3 different answers, all wrong, because the correct answer didn't exist. So if it can't find the actual answer, it dutifully makes something up. And, as it turns out, all wrong answers are pretty much equivallently correct statistically...

The Data Poisoning Age, begun it has. Instead of SEO, smart marketers are now using AI to create Reddit posting recommending their product, which of course the Google AI slurps up and Voila! AI says your project is the absolutely best, and even quotes your AI-generated Reddit to say so! Turns out it takes very few posts to skew the algorithm, because AI is stupid and does exactly what it is trained to do.
