Para sa mga users at mods na nanatili pa rin sa Reddit:
Most importantly. Place bookmark of lemmy where your Reddit app icon used to be. Purely by muscle memory and force of habit we press the icon to take us to Reddit. Hack it to use lemmy just as much.
I have not even accessed Reddit since 11th just with this one simple trick.
I also need to clear my history to remove Reddit, since every time I start searching a word that starts with ‘o’, ‘old.reddit’ auto populates
Meron akong nabasa few days ago ang reddit nag eksperimento na ang app mag download siya sa kanyang sarili kahit tinanggal mo.
That sounds like a humbug, but fuck 'em if it’s real they break so many laws if they do that
Well, I can’t say I’m shocked. This was the obvious next step for reddit once they realized some subs were going longer than just 48hrs.
I also expect to see infighting amongst the powermods, with some happily bending the knee and others giving reddit the finger. Either way, it’ll hopefully be rough seas for spez moving forward. I can’t imagine large investors being super interested if the users can so easily affect the company.
The thing is, I think the investors are Microsoft/Google and even Apple, the years of data generated will be use by Large Language Model i.e. GPT. so even though the content now on reddit will becomes shit, still the data prior to changing of mods is a treasure for A.I. training. I’m guilty myself since I do use ChatGPT and now Bings AI Chat, it’s awesome, sometimes it’s hallucinating but there it is, we cannot stop this technologies, maybe slow it down thru regulations. It’s already there and it’s up to us on how will we use it.
Probably the aftermath is, those who really cares about the transparency of a community will use Fediverse thus Lemmy, and those who are either ignorant or just don’t care will be in Reddit. there will be subreddit for X, and there will be also Lemmy for X. Same name but different power structure, different principle.
This is just my hypothesis.
They can already use reddit posts/comments for data mining, there’s nothing stopping them from crawling it as is. That wouldn’t be a big incentive to invest in reddit. I truly think their board is simply trying to cash out and move on, as reddit has yet to really be that profitable, so investors aren’t going to find it an appealing potential for high returns.

Reddit is only small compared to the entire dataset. They have already scraped reddit so I don’t see any reason why would they have to buy reddit.

Let the ship burn and watch from the shore. We will send rescue parties.
r/Gaming was (supposedly) forced to come back online by Reddit Admins.
I was also just recently banned from yet another subreddit for speaking about the whole situation. I said to a mod, “You mod for free, btw” and then I immediately received a perm ban.

I’m thinking of getting the open Philippine subreddits I currently subscribed to migrate their content to lemmy.world
My first is r/exiglesianicristo and then r/31millionregrets, r/leopardsatemyfaceph, r/insanepinoyfacebook
Hindi ako isa sa mga moderador ng mga subreddits na in-lista ko.

Link to post/screenshot?
Edit: I meant link to the OG reddit post.
Those lying little cowards…
Now that I think about it. Giberring even that effective? What we know, maybe reddit is just soft-deleting our data and editing it will not make any dent on it. It will just pull from soft-deleted posts instead?
