Random Rant: I feel like reddit died after they banned all the "unmoderated" communities. All the posts became sanitized. Now reddit is adding AI and streaks and NFTs to keep people on a platform that has no more content.

Is that what reddit looks like now??? Gross.
they want a read only site, filled with fake bots, and fake engagement. for the purpose of being read only, for advertisement, or they are planning onf selling the site down the line. the gop and musk, thiel would very much like to have control of something like reddit, especially musk, since he has triggered 2 ban waves when he complained to reddit(they were criticizing him).
ever since REDDIT went public thats whats been happening.
The engagement farming is reaching facebook levels.
that is what reddit is trying to achieve, become a facebook clone. matter of time they push the verification that FACEBOOK uses to make accounts, if they get"suspicious"
Yes, but add entire threads that are nothing but [removed]
I'm just curious where all the users went if places like Lemmy arent growing. Piefed I heard was growing, but I kind of assumed they are getting users who are switching from Lemmy and still perusing the same content, just preferred their client options
