putting community conversations front-and-center in the user experience and blending AI-driven efficiency with real human perspectives
So, reading between the lines, Reddit is going to collaborate with advertisers to make their bot spam falsified social proof campaigns successful, while pretending that's not what is going on.
-
Those redditors will be squeezed for all their worth, everything they read will be a targeted ad.
Each user will be put into their own ai-ad bubble for maximum pressure.
-
steal thier content than ban them without reason, like they have been doing.

-
Intentionally blurring the line between ads and user posts. Same stuff as always.
-
99% of the time I look at reddit, if at all, with a PC. You can clearly see posts that are marked "promoted". I have never clicked on any of them and don't understand why anyone would.
-
A good portion of posts are unlabeled organic advertisements masquerading as normal content. Reddit probably doesn't make money off of those directly, but they are amazing for the advertisers posting them.

Would the cofounder of reddit,who died, would he have tolerated what reddit is turning into?
Don't know much about him but to me it sounds like he would hate what reddit has become
-
Aaron Swartz, yeah probably.
Also, who knows, money seems to have a corrupting effect on some…
-
Thats why spez pulled strings at the DOJ to 'make him an example'. It was all orchestrated deliberately to turn reddit into a fascist platform

Reality has sapped all the hope for the future out of me
-
Tech went from hopeful future straight into dystopian reality
-
And we don't even get the cool parts of cyberpunk with the corporate dystopian nightmare.
-
they probably hit a wall on what they can profit from innovation, AI seems to be thier only goals right now.

Bwahahahahahaha fuck you
so glad I redacted my post history and deleted my account. I am not their fucking generative ai resource, let them eat word salad
Doesn't matter, admins have access to every message revision, redacting only keeps it off of reddit undeletes (which don't work anymore anyway) and out of the users' eye
