    Well deserved. First stupid API restrictions now login-wall. Soon google might pull investments out of reddit

    Wait till google decides to de-rank them for being login-walled. All those search results they’re using as leverage.

    I did not know what Lemmy was a couple weeks ago. Reddit pushed me out. I don’t want to be logged in or have an account with the way they harvest data. I got tired of weekly rotating ublock origin scripts and using incognito mode. You don’t want me if I’m not a willing data whore? Fine, I’m gone! I am now actively trying to NOT even look at reddit when a random Google search sends me there!

    Its probably going to drop a lot more now that they require sign in to view once public, indexed threads on google. It was a decent repository of knowledge while it lasted

    Honestly speaking, freedom of speech is practically non-existent on reddit. How else do you explain automated bans, or mods getting triggered over the smallest things? You are not allowed to think or speak freely, critical thinking is virtually zero.

    I love all those “deleted comment” that keeps growing on Reddit. Users are waking up and destroying any contribution to that site, making it ultimately useless.

    I can’t see any useful application of AI within Reddit although I could see AI companies salivating at the prospect of hoovering up data from the site which could be monetized in all sorts of unimaginable ways.

    If anything this shows how totally fucked equity markets are.

    • Predicted $732MM revenue, reported $805MM (10% higher than projected)
    • Expected 54MM DAU, got 53.2MM (1.5% lower than projected)
    • Expected daily users growth of 130.07MM, actual growth 130.3MM (0.2% higher than projected)

    So they’re making way more money than expected, but they haven’t sold out their users fast enough so dump the stock?

    Reddit is just Ai trash these days and the effort needed to block the Ai garbage bots near daily is insane. I come to Lemmy and feel happy seeing new shit. I go to Reddit and it feels like nothing but garbage.
