everybody on ilx complains about reddit

Some subs are now allowing NSFW posts in protest as Reddit has a policy of not allowing ads on NSFW subs. Check out /r/interestingasfuck as one of these.

Also to avoid the ugly desktop UI try old.reddit.com. As long as that's still around I'll still use Reddit at least on desktop. Reddit Enhancement Suite still works with it, fortunately.

Spez's recent comments are only going to embolden protests, trolling and backlash. I wouldn't be surprised if a clone successfully pops up by the end of the year and Reddit experiences the very kind of exodus that helped buoy their success back in 2005.

100% old Reddit is the way to go

I dont mind the look of nu-reddit? But I guess its all I ever knew having come in late.

This chart from SubredditStats show the daily comments and posts for 5 major subreddits: r/news, r/facepalm, r/mademesmile, r/oddlysatisfying, r/mildlyinfuriating.

And that’s how we've now ended up with a Reddit full of r/MadeMeSmile. And, just in case you're curious about what that looks like — four of the top five Reddit posts were reposted TikToks.

Reddit reportedly signed a multi-million content licensing deal with an AI company
https://www.engadget.com/reddit-reportedly-signed-a-multi-million-content-licensing-deal-with-an-ai-company-124516009.html?guccounter=1

As the moderator of my town's subreddit, I suppose I should have some sort of doomed-to-fail opinion about data privacy. If it wasn't opvious already, only "AI" buzzword compliant b.s. is getting funding - all of it spent to monetize the shit out of everyone and everything.

can't imagine how this could go wrong

Reddit's IPO plans are the stupidest thing I've heard in a while

(specifically this plan: https://apnews.com/article/google-reddit-ai-partnership-a7f131c7cb4225307134ef21d3c6a708) which IMO just means most people who care will stop using reddit
