These updates will uplevel the search-and-discover experience for both brands and our users by tapping into our differentiated value as a hub for actionable conversation
I am a bit slow but what does this even mean? Looks like corporate speak cranked up to 11.
This almost reads like a parody.
these updates will improve multiple metrics for ad-buyers by selling new, even more structured and valuable data. We'll do it by tapping into our value as an information monopsony
And have we mentioned that not only would getting deindexed on our platform hurt your sales, we have "other" offers we can't admit to out in the open
It's like they read the enshittification essay and thought "wow! There's some great ideas here"

Somebody accidentally chose the more creative option instead of the more precise option when they ask chat GPT to rewrite their marketing spiel.

Well now I'm glad I deleted my entire history as well as my account. FUCK THAT. I haven't been on FB, Twitter or any of that other data grubbing bullshit in years.
I also deleted my history, 13 years, thousands of comments. I used Redact, it took a couple of retries and logout/login but in the end, it worked.

Welp, time to delete my Reddit account, I guess. I thought there was a (small) chance Reddit would come to their senses vis a vis the API, but with this shit, even if they do, who cares?
Thanks, Reddit. It was fun while it lasted.
I’d not be surprised if they would join lemmy to explore this untapped opportunities as well.

Reading this shit makes my blood boil. Is it too much to ask to not be simmered down to a product instead of a human?
Of course it is
yeah, fuck that
