I can see why Reddit needs to secure the user base. As not accounts proliferate they need to be able to demonstrate verified real users to their advertisers. Unfortunately for privacy, this will be widespread, in that case. I’m opting out.
So how much are they paying reddit, exactly…?
Humans with human eyeballs are still using Reddit? I thought it was just bots moderating bots by now.
happy cake day
Who TF is actually going to want to use these platforms bad enough to do this shit?
Facebook sucks and has for quite some time.
Reddit is mainly just very poorly disguised government surveillance and AI generated advertisement, and none of the content is even enjoyable or enticing. Who TF is their target audience?
Facebook sucks and has for quite some time.
In Canada we passed a regulation that social media sites have to pay our media companies to link to their articles. Google is paying up, but Facebook said no, and has banned news. It has made Facebook here much less terrible.
You severely overestimate how much the average person cares about their own privacy.
Even so, are they going to acquire, set up, and use an iris scanner just to remain anonymous on Reddit?
It’ll be in yer phone
Who TF is their target audience?
Useful idiots
Bots
…this isn’t satire?
Every frickin day… at least once, I read a post’s title and start looking around for clues that it’s not real… My mind goes: “is it the onion? Is it April’s fools again already? This can’t be true…”
Thanks Reddit for giving me yet another reason not to go back
I got banned for more or less saying Elon is a miserable twat who deserves bad things to happen to him on that one thread where people went full board on the gruesome depictions and that was enough for a permaban. Fuck Reddit.
I got banned for saying that poisoning an invasive species like cats isn’t any different than poisoning an invasive species like rats, except that cats are cute and fluffy and rats are not.
It was under a post about the Australian government putting up poison traps to combat the local cat population which is threatening local endangered wildlife.
You’d have to get me high on PCP + cocaine + some sort of crazy shit like krokodil to just implant the idea that I need to verify my very existence to a private company to post comments online or to enjoy a website.
This will do it. It will finally kill reddit.
Been trying to get people on Reddit to cross over to the light over here but damn it’s hard

don’t kink shame my dude
And I was worried that it was the Australian Governments Digital ID shit that would be what gets in my way. You know what reddit, just do it. It would be the kick I need to completely drop reddit.
whatever me and everyone else useful is banned. reddit can do whatever the fuck it wants its just a bunch of white supremacists i think.
there’s such a painfully obvious agenda over there with the admins. I got a 7 day ban for knocking russians and saying “slava ukraini” then I got a perm ban a week after that for posing the question “how long until an average citizen with an AR decides to deal with ICE themselves?” because apparently both times I was “inciting violence against a minority” because Russians and ICE agents, according to Reddit, are minorities
The Russia part is still how it works in .ml.
I’ve blocked the .ml instance so I wouldn’t know.
Yeah I’m not sure why I haven’t yet. I guess I just keep thinking that there’s some topics like tech that they can’t turn into a propaganda opportunity, but they consistently prove me wrong.
i have a novelty account i kept around and i just post luigi pictures whenever it gets unbanned. it has probably only been unbanned a week this year
lol
lmao, even
Reddit wants to become bots talking to bots
Drink verification can to continue.
