Fair. +1

But also, that just sounds like they're cheaping out on content filtering. And, you know, kinda broke the enthusiastic community moderation that made it great in the first place.

Yes, that's true. This all happened like 3 weeks after they went public IPO. I didn't buy it, because I thought reddit had a decent chance of falling on it's ass on the free market. It's a 10+ year old company that's never made a profit. It's reasonable to assume it might fail.

3 weeks after I declined, and they went public, I suddenly get 3 temporary bans in a week, and the 3rd one was a permanent ban. All by autobots.

Yeah same here, the last post I made was to argue for more disabled access to European historical sites n the r/europe subreddit.

After everything I’ve posted, THAT is what got me banned.

After loosing my appeal, I changed all my prior posts to AI generated gibberish.

Fuck Reddit, salt your posts so they can’t use your content to make money on search or train AI.

I wish I could, but I have hundreds of thousands if not millions of comments.

Look at my time here, and now look at how many comments I have here, and know that I am running at MAYBE 5% of my posting capacity.

Lemmy just is barren of content if you don't care about politics, linux, or star trek.

There are some extensions that can edit your comments automatically.

Decepticons probably wouldn't be any more permissive, though.
