Wow, I bet the writing focused communities will love this!
I’m glad I deleted my content on the way out.
How would I go about doing that? I’d like to wipe my shit from over there before I outright delete my account.
Nice! Someone owes me 5€ now.
What’s the best method to mass edit my comments?
PowerDeleteSuite. I used this when things went hot with Reddit. You can even edit your comments before deleting them, best part for you, you don’t have to delete them. (Hopefully Reddit haven’t countered this).
Look at the issues and you will notice it only works on comments visible from the profile page and that not all are visible. It appears that someone made a python script to solve this problem but that you need an API key to use it.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Reddit will let “an unnamed large AI company” have access to its user-generated content platform in a new licensing deal, according to Bloomberg yesterday.
The deal, “worth about $60 million on an annualized basis,” the outlet writes, could still change as the company’s plans to go public are still in the works.
The news also follows an October story that Reddit had threatened to cut off Google and Bing’s search crawlers if it couldn’t make a training data deal with AI companies.
Last year, it successfully stonewalled its way out of the biggest protest in its history after changes to its third-party API access pricing caused developers of the most popular Reddit apps to shut down.
As Bloomberg writes, Reddit’s year-over-year revenue was up by 20 percent by the end of 2023, but it was still $200 million shy of a $1 billion target it had set two years prior.
The company was reportedly advised to seek a $5 billion valuation when it opens up for public investment, which is expected to happen in March.

Is Lemmy protected of scraping our data for AI?

Can an instance close the API or limit it?

I dont see why someone would need this deal anyways… most is already available, and most the new stuff probably too, even without API access.
I also expect the fediverse to be crawled and used for training, thats just the thing about publicly available stuff, it gets used, if we like it or not…Ah, more glue on pizza incoming. Personally I don’t understand taking reddit posts as a source for LLM training. It’s like they never visited reddit and think that all posts/comments are true, or even useful. Depending on the sub, sarcasm can account for anywhere from 5% to 100%.
