News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

I can't wait to see their IPO fail dismally, at least I hope so.
I don't think it will. They will go with the "single greatest resource for AI data" angle and make bank. They aren't ignoring this backlash just to kill some apps.
Yeah, which is precisely why it's important to ruin the product with random spam, racism, overly sexual comments, lorem ipsum and for good measure some fetish porn and gore images.
Wasn't Microsoft training an AI from Twitter and it basically turned into the aforementioned garbage?
I doubt that companies would enjoy to train their models on a foul dataset filled with nonsense, hatred, porn and gore.
I guess this could be a way to finally create that genocidal AI everybody keeps promising us is definately coming.
I don't think it will.
Sorry for refusing to participate in this extremely gay "fuck u/spez!" circlejerk, but at this point it seems clear that they won.
Oh, well. Lemmy works just fine. Can we move on now?

If Reddit's IPO fails, great! You won't see me complaining.
I don't see it failing, but if it does, I'll happily be wrong.
They're shooting themselves in the face, but the gun won't go off until Friday. They're kicking out everyone who is addicted to the site enough to install a third party app for it. I really hope that RIF and Apollo redirect people to Lemmy after this weekend.
Hey, I hope it dies too. Reddit sucks.
It really could go either way at this point though.
Oh man, the real Armageddon’s gonna start when the 3PAs die. No more Reddit for me afterwards.
Christian announcing Reddit for Lemmy/Kbin would be icing on the cake, but I just don’t see that happening.
Mlem is the spiritual successor to Apollo. In the beta and it’s been wonderful to use.
I’ve used it, and it’s certainly not bad. It’s missing some of the basics that made Apollo great though, like the rich text editor.
AOL and Yahoo still exists and their CEO didn't make a sobbing tiktok video inside their car, which means they won!
So... what is this about exactly?
Downvoted only for your shitty use of the term "gay". Everything else I agree with.
