They’re trying to get humans off Reddit and replace them with bots. They make money from ad revenue, and people just aren’t as guaranteed to click through as much as bots can be programmed to.
Curiously, gaming the ad revenue system is the same reason Musk won’t ever do anything about the bots on Twitter. Well, that and they stroke his ego.
Don’t use reddit.
Well, until lemmy gets the superniche, hyperlocal communities that some of us look at on reddit, that’s going to be a problem…
We gotta start getting active in our niches on here
👍
Listen I’m at least POSTING in the lancer ttrpg community here Edit: point being, even if I got no traction, making an effort to get community bubbling up in those spaces before resigning yourself to looking on reddit is the only way any of them will get started
Oh, I do too; be the change you want to see in the world and all that.
Much appreciated, this is the mentality we need on here
I’m just excited for more people to come here
Yeah, Same here honestly
Hey, that’s me.
I tried after the API bs a couple years ago, but there wasn’t a lot of traffic so I just went back to lurking sans account.
After this BS I’m fully on here now. Fuck that propaganda machine.
It’s almost like they don’t want you to be in Reddit when you are popping at work, they are now working with tech to make capital happy. More units pers labour!
I haven’t been able to log in from my office, using a cloud browser over a vpn, for several days. Different error message every time.
Yeah the level of bullshit on reddit finally overwhelmed what I’m willing to tolerate so I’m permanently lemmy now.
I will be reposting things I want https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/lemmy-deep-lighthouse/
I don’t know off the top of my head but any third party sites that might have access to reddits past posts so I can Google “how do I fix this thing” and get the proper reddit information
I just typed the address of a sub without logging in and that works so far.
