Is this !fuck_ai@lemmy.world ?

This is why I don't use reddit anymore.

I think reddit has lost most of its human users so it's just NPC's and bots.

Stop using ChatGPT to write your posts. If your Roku fix was formatted like this one, I'd pull it off my community too

8k views means 7k ai scrapers downloading the same resource over and over

Welcome to federated social media my dude. You're better off without that shithole.

I've been auto shadowbanned from a technical community, more than once. No idea why. It'd be nice to have a conversation with a mod like that, at least.

It seems others have too. Whenever I go back to check, it's like all the brainpower has been sucked from the sub.

Sometimes I see an 'issue' or 'help' post I have an impulse to post exactly what they need, before I realize I can't... and no one else posts anything helpful.

...Yet sometimes weird, obvious bots reply.

I don't know what the heck is going on with Reddit, but its amazing its lasted this long.

... So what's the fix?

Some dumb shit I said, was apparently appreciated by people too, I even had Reddit friends. Reddit isn't worthy of any of us.

Didn’t mean to spark a sociology thesis — I just got banned for fixing Roku. 😂

Apologies if this isn’t the right forum — it’s my first post and first Lemmy experience.

Here’s the Roku fix for those asking: 1️⃣ Add at least one of your antenna channels to Favorites first. 2️⃣ Then hover over the Live TV tile on your Roku home screen for a few seconds. 3️⃣ It should auto-open straight into your antenna feed (not the ad-stuffed “Live TV” hub). 4️⃣ Do this a few times — it seems to “train” the TV to default back to your real over-the-air channels.

Doesn’t matter whether “Hide Streaming Channels” is on or off — this trick forces it back to antenna mode. ✅ Still works as of 11-1-25.

Side note on the “AI wrote this” comments: I didn’t use ChatGPT to pretend to be smart — I used it the same way we all use spellcheck, Grammarly, or code formatters: to make my thoughts read cleaner instead of rambling.

It’s funny that on a tech platform, of all places, using a tool that helps structure text offends some folks. 😅

The ideas are mine — I just used something to help me say them clearly. Seems like that’s kind of the point of technology, no?

Fuck reddit I mean that's all. I stopped looking at it so long ago. Found a way online to delete all my posts and my user account while downloading all my posts to an xml so I could keep MY content.

I might be way to sleepy but I think I'm missing something here. The way I read it, the sequence is:

• you first posted something that got taken down,
• you posted it again and that got you a ban because you reposted
• you asked the mod who banned you why the first post was taken down, which of course doesn't matter. You can't keep reposting it until a mod allows it.
• you were rude to the mod and got banned

I see nothing wrong here except that you MAY not have been given an explanation of why the fist post was taken down
