I already gave up from Reddit long time ago. Deleted all
When RIF died, Voyager became the new forum app for me.
Maybe I should try voyager too
Thanks for sharing. I will check it out
Damn you Spez.
That place is becoming more and more of a shithole. Bots, Ads, trolls, garbage mods… deleted the app last month.
I quit reddit, cold turkey, the day they shut off free API access for 3rd parties. Except for a couple of fairly niche subs I haven’t missed it at all.
Same here. I’ve been better off ever since.
Oh no, someone might not be paying them for their user generated content (!)
To be fair, it’s probably best that history forgets this period of the web…
that history forgets this period
and thus it repeats
don’t worry, we easily repeat what we “learned” anyway
reddit can go fuck itself.
That’s the kind of talk that can get you banned from Reddit. 😜
I imagine almost my entire Post history can get me banned on Reddit.
Fuck Reddit and Fuck Spez.
Fuck Reddit
So reddit will become even less valuable
They can keep their shit for themselves, stopped caring a long time ago.
Time to just ignore them and scrape it anyways
OK, I stopped posting on Reddit but left my account and comments in place because I considered them part of the public record. If Reddit is taking that record private, it’s time for me to start removing my content from the platform.
Does anyone know if historical Reddit content will remain in IA? If not, I’m going to have to back up years of content somewhere else.
Reddit is archived and available as torrent up until the API change.
You can’t remove it. It’s there forever.
When reddit has mutated a few more times. They start erasing stuff themselves. It will be lost to time and that fills me with hope.
Fuck Spez
If you can’t archive something, did it ever really exist?
In a causal sense, yes. In a ‘the average person is fucking stupid’ sense, no.
Not that reddit isn’t hot garbage right now, and has been for a while actually, but there’s a lot of people here who have glazed over the reason why reddit instituted this policy.
AI companies are scraping the Wayback Machine. This is something that should concern all of us.
Why?
