And age verification is a thing. I miss the excellent discussions. I don't see them here. It's a list of comments, no reactions.

What do you mean by reactions, like the badge things, or conversations?

[–] TheNextMuon@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

What you do here: writing reactions. The discussions are not what I'm used to on Reddit and Slashdot back in the days. It's probably that the userbase is small. It is what is is and I'm glad that forums like Lemmy exist and I hope they start gaining traction. On the other hand, now I'm back writing content for AI, so is that a win?

Yeah... The certainty that this very conversation will be scraped and monetized is a real bummer. Makes me less likely to share my real self online.

Yeah, LLM battles lately. Reddit's been falling for like 10 years by now. The last five have been free fall, though.

started with trumps 1st term, and magically when the gop was threatening the social media for "harm against children" shtick, reddit ban all the subs that were "illicit".

then came the massive amount of russian bots around 2018, thats when they started banning people for inneundos.
