It was pretty well theorized that by killing off apis they were cutting out their highest content providers, us. We provided free content and they got value out of it. Then they didn't want us anymore.
Now we are here, thousands of comments and posts, and they are upping theirs with AI slop
Good luck to 'em. But also fuck 'em.
Correct. I got banned for repping guillotines as a solution to Americas problems, and then doubling down. That "this account has been banned" banner has been a point of pride for me. I joined reddit in 2009. For so many years I answered questions and commented all day long. In certain subs I was a major contributor. I switched phones and now can't even log in without an app. I will not be downloading that app. Goodbye Felicia good luck with your bots
