Because Reddit is a nazi sympathizing, brown shirt wearing shithole for jack booted thugs and fascists. It all started when some cunt at Reddit thought “what if my user base was a product?”, and thus the en-digg-ification of Reddit was complete.
Fuck that fascist friendly corpo shithole, it belongs in the dumpster next to Digg.
Reddit feels like walking into a creepy anamatronic exibit alone at night. You keep looking for someone to ask where the exit is, and occasionally you bump into another warm blooded creature that is sometimes human, but you slowly start to realise that most of those shadowy figures aren’t alive. You’re trapped there until you start listening for the real music softly calling below the ambient noise of the exhibit in the distance.
Five nights at Reddit
Reddit already had ads that appeared in subs that looked like posts with some tiny text saying it’s an ad. This’ll make it even more insufferable. screw Spez
Fuck Reddit and Fuck Spez.
If it wasn’t for the AI nonsense, this could’ve actually been a great idea.
Businesses might want to use Reddit comments as ads.
Reddit says “Hey, let us find those glowing reviews that we have as Reddit comments, and you can link directly to the original source!”
Then the original comment writer could edit their comments to call political figures pedos, and businesses learn their lesson that this kind of stuff is not suited for using Reddit as a primary source, lol
Digitec/Galaxus (local online shop) does this right with user votes.
And statistics.
I enjoyed this ride.
Seems like being banned from Reddit was a blessing.
Here’s hoping they push more people to Lemmy.
Joke’s on them. I just post and comment negative rants.
I post positive ways to avoid consumerism.
then they’ll use your negativity as a reason not to buy their competition
I’m perfectly able to be negative about them and their competition at the same time.
They just won’t show the negative parts about them :p
Bastards… I spend a lot of time carefully crafting them :-P
Quotes from the original announcement:
Today, Reddit is the most human place on the internet, and one of the last places on the internet where brands can build authentic, trusted and engaged relationships with customers.
Bwahaha, “most human”? Really? Wow.
A scalable, AI-powered social listening tool designed to unlock strategic value
Barf. Oh boy, “social listening tool” - that’s a new one…
These are tools for a new era of community marketing, one where brands can tap into Reddit’s authenticity
Yup, because nothing says “authenticity” like artificially realigned messages interspersed with AI slop ads. Such real, much authentic, wow…
By “Most Human” clearly they mean the most flawed and greedy.
Today, Reddit is the most human place on the internet, and one of the last places on the internet where brands can build authentic, trusted and engaged relationships with customers.
That reads like something out of their totalnotrobots subreddit. I TOO LOVE EXPRESSIVE AND AUTHENTIC HUMAN THOUGHTS.
Hahaha, great point :) HELLO FELLOW HUMAN, WOULD YOU LIKE TO BUILD AN AUTHENTIC, TRUSTED AND ENGAGED RELATIONSHIP WITH ANOTHER HUMAN BEING THAT IS TOTALLY NOT A ROBOT? :D
How better to celebrate the 2-year anniversary of Rexit?
The APIcalypse.
May the api access rest in peace
Fuck Reddit
Fuck spez.
Spez is a greedy little pig boy.
Spez is a lizard robot. I mean, just look at it. It’s a fucking weird creep
“When I’m cutting people off in traffic, illegally parking in handicap spaces, and racing at 100 mph through school zones, I rely on my Dodge Ram pickup to get it done!”
When I plowed through that kindergarten I didn’t get as much as a single dent. If that isn’t an endorsement, then I don’t know what is.
I mean this isn’t far from the current state of things. I subscribe to /r/fuckcars an anti-car sub and regularly see car ads. These advertisers are wasting their money.
Connecting ads masquerading as posts to bot posts shilling the same crap, got it
So they’re going to take what was once the best place for honest reviews and make it shittier.
Glad they don’t have an API or it would make the internet worse.
Welcome to capitalism!
I mean, they do have an API. It’s just so expensive that no one but VC-funded EAcc weirdos can use it
One more reason to be glad I ditched that hellpit.
I wonder how far you can push this? Like there was a whole subreddit (can’t remember the name) that was dedicated to news that seems positive on the surface but is actually fucked up when you take 2 seconds to think. Could you just get chatgpt to come up with a way to positively frame the worst shit specifically to bait adds next to it?
Isn’t it just the majority of posts in r/upliftingnews ? Their news is like “Child working 24/7 in construction site get enough Kickstarter donations to pay for his mother’s cancer treatment”
Are you thinking of r/orphancrushingmachine? There’s a c/orphancrushing here on Lemmy.
Yep that’s the one! Thanks for the Lemmy reference!
Here’s the link for anyone else:
As a single mom, it’s hard for me to be proactive about my kids’ health, but I have to say that Cerave cream has been a GODSEND for treating the scratches and blisters they get at work.
“dynamically integrates positive content from Reddit users directly below an advertiser’s creative, putting community conversations front-and-center in the user experience and blending AI-driven efficiency with real human perspectives”.
the company is also introducing a “scalable, AI-powered social listening tool. […] Informed by proprietary metadata, it provides precise, real-time insights that help marketers confidently plan campaigns, validate creative ideas, and make smarter business decisions"
I wonder how much they had to pay a business major to come up with those sentences, or did they just use ChatGPT …
dynamically integrates
I’ve read enough lmao
blending AI-driven efficiency
This makes me want to throw up
I mean, that’s at least functional grammar.
“advertiser’s creative”? The fuck is that? You aren’t cool by dropping the noun out and trying to use an adejective in its place.
It’s not about whether or not it’s functional grammar, it’s just dumbass marketing jargon. I don’t know why but something snapped in me a few months ago about that shit. I referred to “creating content” and I just felt the glass shatter in my brain. I fucking hate that term. I’m a fucking artist.
I use my camera, I make movies. I paint with light. I don’t “generate content” like some AI slop machine. I don’t know why I have allowed marketing terminology to permeate my language, but I fucking hate it and I am dead set on exorcising it out of my head like the demon it is.
As rediculous as it sounds, “creative” is used as a noun in marketing speak to refer to an image, video, carousel, slideshow, or whatever. I know, it’s stupid.
