Seriously. Reddit is a glorified link sharing service with comments looking for a 6+ billion valuation. Christian and a couple backend devs could recreate it all in a weekend.

Reddit is hopeful that AI training is their golden ticket but in all reality they’ll only ever have one large buyer. OpenAI, Anthropic, Mistral, etc, don’t want something that Gemini already bought.

With all that out of the way, I don’t see very many companies lining up to license a far left-leaning dataset that had all non-echo chamber discussion banned. I mean, look at how much trouble Google got in with an objectively racist Gemini that forced them to turn off human image generation.

Ah okay, so it’s still accessible, but just not by default? Something kinda like what Reddit does with quarantining a subreddit?

I can see how it’s useful to keep “Hot” or “All” feeds clear of junk. But I hope it’s not the case where server admins can choose to totally prevent an instance from being discoverable.
