I am equally unsurprised and upset

    While I no longer wish to engage with Reddit, I still visit it occasionally, especially in the LLM Age. This is because appending site: reddit.com to a search query is basically a surefire way to find results written by genuine humans. Which, just to be extremely clear, I still find desirable.

    Isn’t Reddit THE site that is used by everyone to poison LLMs with their ads?

      Yeah, I raised my eyebrows at that too. It’s not as bad as Twitter, but there’s plenty of bots there nowadays.

    FYI for anyone who depended on old reddit: There are a lot of Redlib instances out there that are being actively updated to the latest instance with fairly high uptime. I use an add-on called LibRedirect which redirects any links from reddit to one of these instances. If Reddit ever hunts down these instances, you can host your own.
