TheRazorX,

By the way, this announcement helped me solve where the ugly pixelated Reddit app logo is from: you can see it in Reddit’s r/Place announcement video. For some reason, that video also includes pixelated images of a fire in a garbage can.

Brutal.

TheRazorX,

Run weighted polls to make big decisions in your community, like getting input on rules changes or deciding how to distribute Points.

Unlike regular polls, these polls give a larger voice to people who have contributed more to the community. The more Community Points someone has earned, the more weight their vote carries

Am I the only one that thinks this is a horrible idea considering the creator to lurker ratio?

TheRazorX, (edited )

Try googling your username and Reddit and see what is there (I found hundreds even though your profile was showing only two)

Just did that and holy shit there's a ton still left over. Is there another alternative that will delete properly cause my profile shows it's empty.

Edit: And to clarify, I didn't get my GDPR archive back yet despite putting in the request a few weeks ago, so dunno if I can use any of the tools that require the archive.

TheRazorX,

thanks!

I went ahead and manually deleted a bunch, but it looks like there are at least several thousand left. I'll have to wait, but honestly I don't even know if they'll actually comply anyway.

TheRazorX,

My favorite part is the accuracy of all the admin boot licking accounts in the comments never having actually taken part in said subreddit.

Yeah, not sus at all. /s

Hot take: 18 years of user contributions to reddit will serve as a base model for an AI that generates content and conversations. the reddit experience continues as a simulation, to harvest clicks, sales and ad revenue.

most of the time you'll be talking to a bot there without even realizing. they're gonna feed you products and ads interwoven into conversations, and the AI can be controlled so its output reflects corporate interests. advertisers are gonna be able to buy access and run campaigns. based on their input, the AI can generate...

TheRazorX,

Another stealth benefit to reddit with all this API crap, is that it'll be much harder to tell since most of the tools people use to analyze accounts won't work anymore. Keeping in mind Reddit started out by inflating their user numbers.

TheRazorX,

Nothing is immune, but at least on the fediverse it's unlikely API access will be revoked on tools used to detect said bots.

TheRazorX,

Per Reddit's own rules, WE own the content we post there, they just have a non-exclusive license to use it.

I'd say edit every comment/post to include that you revoke the license you gave reddit. Might mean something, might not, who knows.

Thanks for setting this up for us. I've bookmarked it so I can come back and get more familiar with it. For now, I'm focused on making SaidIt work for us, FINALLY (I think) I figured out how to create a private chat for the mods - which we need more than ever now because reddit is doing all these chat updates and mod chats have disappeared for many of us, not to mention the reddit bot that was added as a member before the chats disappeared.

TheRazorX,

@penelope_pnortney I see it!

TheRazorX,

This is exactly what I did. I saved a copy of all my content

How did you do this?
