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.

Reddit should crack down on human users instead! Let Reddit be AI Bot Exclusive space!

    Reddit is no longer for humans. So yes, the situation is pretty dire.

    and yet tech bros scrape it for model training and content research. i used to like AskPhilosophy and the likes back when it wasn't wackjob agora for clinically insane (a decade ago in not more?) but seeing that shit getting mined is baffling because it is basically a deliberate data contamination.
