Reddit CEO says facial verification may be introduced. Ostensibly to prevent bots.

But we all know how dangerous this can be. But most likely Reddit users will just accept it.

Although they have a great free analogue right under their noses - Lemmy. Which is many times better than its competitor.

I wish more people would discover Lemmy, but that's unlikely.

You're probably right and this is the first time I've felt kind of glad for the "speed bump" that picking a server on the fediverse has become. We'll get another influx before too long; maybe a "you need to be this clever to ride the ride" checkpoint isn't such a bad thing.

    That's what I thought when I initially signed up but I'm realizing we lack diversity baaaaaaad. I'd wager 90%+ of users are tech people and we are infamously antisocial, which is rough for a "social media"
