Don’t think they’re doing this out of the goodness of the hearts, they’re just trying to avoid the “shit in, shit out” affect of their data sample.
Too late ~
They’re doing this to better identify you
It’s already happening, I see I opened accounts but none of my comment gets posted with accounts I don’t know why , this is with new accounts
That’s a shadowban
Same happened to me, all my old accounts which I had for years got banned for no reason and new accounts gets banned as soon as I comment.
Your IP address/device fingerprint has been blacklisted. They do daily (possibly a few times throughout the day) automated bans of any accounts that visit the site from IPs of users they have banned. Commenting automatically triggers an IP check so you’re banned instantly, but if you didn’t even comment your account would be banned by the end of the day.
I tested this after I wiped and deleted my accounts back when they made all the API changes. They undeleted my account, undeleted all of my posts, and then permanently banned my account. I then signed in to one of my alt accounts that has never commented to see if they had banned it, and they hadn’t - until a few hours later when it was permanently banned for “ban evasion”. I created a new account to see what would happen - same thing. I then turned on the built in VPN on a browser and set it to always be active when on reddits domain and made a new account, and that account to this day is still not banned.
sounds like you got shadowbanned, you can check your username, by not logging in and click your profile.
it usually says “cannot find profile” on a browser, which means shadowbanned.
Reddit: User content belongs to us. You can’t scrape, collect, use, or have bots interact with it… unless you pay us.
Lemmy is the same in terms of ownership btw, as is pretty much every online platform. Anything you post is owned by the owner of the instance that it is on and that it federates to. You don’t own it.
I dare you to compare the largest possible instance vs Reddit as a whole.
I don’t think you understood my comment.
Also reddalso Reddit: since all users have left, most of our traffic now consists of posts from AI bots that we’re really really blocking!!
Like “closing the gate after the sheep already escaped”, but in reverse?
like: Closed the gate after the wolf got in?
Closing the gate after the wolves have got in eaten all the sheep, had a nice rest, and then left. And then about 30 years past.
Sure maybe small trees are now growing in the now ungrazed pasture, but I guess late is better than never.
No they wont. Just those who haven’t paid them first.
Lol, they’re the ones using the bots to fake engagement in the first place.
I Think Thies weil continue to work. Only foreign bots are exkulpiert.
Hah, yeah. One could say it’s a form of digital nepotism.
“Only our bots get go work here!”
“Drink verification can to continue”
Unauthorized AI bots
100%. Reddit loves bots that they control, like the ones that go back and constantly re-post years old top rated, traffic driving content, complete with a replica of the entire comment section posted by hundreds/thousands of bots, because they can use it to do their bidding in pushing agendas and/or driving traffic/engagement.
Am I overreacting aita and all of those question answer subs are all bots.
It wouldn’t surprise me if Reddit worked with OpenAI and Google and other AI companies to help them get the data they want by letting them manipulate subs.
I don’t believe that for 1 millisecond.
Spez won’t be able to stop himself from enshitifying reddit in any way he can to appease those VC pump&dump scammers he’s spent the last decade ruining reddit for.
step one: ban everyone who writes an emdash
I love em dashes. Fuck AI.
I like em dashes. I learned the alt code for en and em dashes just so I could use them easily on a computer. There is a difference between a hypen and an en dash, and a double-hyphen is but a simulacrum of the em dash!
- Hyphen is just for double-barrelled words
- An en dash is useful – at least sometimes – for inserting side thoughts
- ah boy I sure hope an em dash doesn’t interrupt m—
But let’s be real, I type kinda formally, like an AI, sooo
I am not convinced. Sending you to the crypto mines where all AI belong. See you in ten thousand years.
Oh no, the mines will be so bad for my authentic supple human skin, and my favourite mammilian activity of breathing air

@themachinestopsare you afraid a NSA agent reads your wet dreams or your favourite bands list ?
Fuck reddit, It’s a shithole.
Sometimes I have to return for various reasons. God. Some of them have absolutely bled over to the fediverse, but holy HELL are the people and the culture there messed up. I don’t know if it’s getting worse or I’m healing.
What’s the difference between Reddit and Lemmy culturally? I thought that the people who moved over here held opinions fairly typical of Reddit.
Personally I feel like I am healing. I haven’t signed into reddit since they bent the knee to musk. I have noticed that I have become less toxic. I still go off half cocked like an idiot but I have been more tactful about it. I hope to keep working on it because I honestly never noticed until I had been away from reddit for a few weeks.
I haven’t signed into reddit since they bent the knee to musk.
What did I miss here? Reddit hates musk…
Spez doesn’t
How did they bend the knee to musk is what I’m asking.
Started banning everyone who says mean things about Tesla and musk. Banned whole subreddits for him.
Edit: oh it’s fucking you, of course it fucking is. How much they paying you?
Source please
Suuuurrrre they will…
What and destroy 90% of their traffic?!?
“That’s a bold move, Cotton. Let’s see if it pays off for ’em.”
AI bots.
Not the rest of them.
Yeah the manual bots are ok (humans?) I guess
