You're just now realizing it?
not really but it make for good joke pacing.
i’ve been here for a while. and not there for a while.
How dare you question King Steven the Turd, Greediest of Pigboys? If he proclaims HTML to be unsafe, it must be so. That's a King's job, to tell the Landed Gentry how to behave....
I'm not forgetting or forgiving that shit either.
I get blocked and asked to login to reddit no matter if it's old or new. safereddit still works though so I'm using that for now.
afaik supposedly it was because a large chunk of the bot network went through the old.reddit portal over the standard reddit portal.

Apart from all that, what would prevent an AI knowledge thieving tool from using an actual account on Reddit?
One would need more than 1 account...
As if that would stop an AI agent.
I am so glad I'm off reddit. Even though I could use their help on a great number of subjects. Neverheless, because Isreal I can't use reddit apparently. Not permabanned yet but they are on my shit with fake violations like right away now. I abandon them after a 2nd violation, go through one every 3 to 6 months when using it.
Every single company that goes public gets worse, reddit will be no exception. Those craven amoral cockscum are not to be trusted, nor patronized with our words they can use for their own benefit.
