too bad most of them are on reddit subs.

reddit apparently is still valuable for people to make money off using bots, that arnt propaganda bots. it just involves getting enough people to get on yuor OF accounts, or if your using links to your business website. of course these bots usually wont target the large subs for recognition, because you mostly will be easily banned and filtered out from the famous subs very quickly, they use obscure ones where reddit wouldnt immediately notice them.

they want to paywall subs eventually, plus becoming a facebook clone down the line, where the datamining features included, like requiring your REAL ID, facial recognition, i suspect thier bannings propensity will get more intense as facebook too if you try to "lie" on your credentials.

now theres like 4 of them, most of them are bots, or written by a person that is gauging peoples reaction(for thier personal projects)

i remember the original AITA was private for a while, then came out AITAH, and then AIO, and then a couple of other ones.

I use RedLib but I make it even easier by having an extension LibRidirect that automatically redirects reddit links to privacy frontends such as RedLib. It's really easy to use and I don't even have to think about using Reddit ever again. Win-win in my book.

oh yea, some ytber tried to get people in a sub that was criticizing them to thier DISCORD, everyone knew they were trying to silence them, glad people stuck around and kept the sub around.

they will probably go to facebook,

the ads only apear in a tiny box at the bottom in the comments section. Super unintrusive

…You folks tolerate ads? Just use Voyager. It has post+comment saving, and no ads. It even has user tags.

some mods will actually go out the way say you cant report people, they think its not violating the sub rules.

started in 2017, around the same time 45 first term. subs started to have very inflammatory content, so they start banning anyone that remotely they think, its offensive in that Political climate. just like you cant use the word, black, and demographic word in certain context.

Then why the fuck is there a report button?

They already require your real ID if you are in the UK

Now Reddit is adding AI and streaks

The users have plenty of streaks in their underwear.

Exactly. There are some people budding straight off of Reddit culture that still haven't read the room here, but I try to tell them if possible, otherwise I just block. We need to foster the culture in this place. It takes a village.

Oh my god, you're a LIFESAVER for the LibRidirect link, thank you! Fucking Instagram and Quora links piss me off too!

I tried voyager, Its missing post viewing modes that I loved from boost and baconreader. I do not tolerate ads that is slander lol, I did a 1x payment to support the devs and now dont get any ads, If they update voyager with the features i need, Ill do the same.

Probably, but im more concerned with archiving the years of information being poured into the platform.

Interested if you have an article or video you are referencing here, would love to read/watch

Mine only goes back 11 years as I did that cool thing where you delete your account and start fresh each year for a few years.

I do like how the only times I’ve used it since is to shill Lemmy and apparently abusing a monarchist.
