MODERATORS
Why is this a trend?
It varies from company to company, but when infinite growth becomes unrealistic they get desperate for new revenue and start doing shitty nickel and dime tactics.
More specifically for Reddit thoughts are they realized that these new AI tools had already pilfered all of “their” content and they did not see a cent from it and responded wildly.
The AI training is one thing, but they are also looking to drive all traffic into their own mobile app and site with their own ads.
