FYI for anyone who wishes to archive Reddit without relying on old.reddit.com (if that still works).

LibReddit is an open-source, alternative front-end for Reddit. If you've ever used Invidious, Nitter, or ProxiTok, then this is another such tool at your disposal.

LibRedirect automatically reroutes Reddit requests to the next LibReddit instance publicly available. Latency testing also included.

Yeah it's odd enough my theory is that the "girlfriend" thinks they are broken up but still friends and doesn't know that the redditor is planning on her moving back in.
 
Few days ago I was wondering if anyone used ChatGPT to generate reddit posts for karmawhoring. I found this one today.

According to OP, this was generated by AI and he posted it to /r/antiwork and got 20.8k points and 4k comments

Here OP admits it on /r/ChatGPT

He probably did it to troll the "people" at r/antiwork rather than to karmawhore. It just goes on to show how stupid the people on that sub are.

Here's a big name user of theirs, they're in the middle of pozzing the covid subs that started to turn away from forever masking:

Most of the comments are people talking about themselves, nobody wants to say that yes, this man is in fact wrong and is doing damage to his child. Then there's this guy,

This account is 2 months old and comments almost exclusively about covid, how he never had it, how dangerous it is, etc. He's very adamant that he will never get covid.

Reddit and Discord have singlehandedly annihilated any hope of open information access by sheer virtue of "private" communities and Discord being a walled garden.

There is no solution. This is what happens in all large social media that require constant and hefty moderation. The choice and work of mods are manipulated by the upper management (which is in bed with political interests) to steer the website's content in a determinate direction. Reddit's moderation isn't aggressive and tyrannical by a fluke, but by design, and it's tailored to filter information and maintain a certain environment on that website.

  • Make mods unable to post and unable to gain karma in that sub.
  • Powermods should all be banned, aka limit the amount of people you can moderate, not just the number of subs. So either 1 sub with 10 million people, or 20 subs with 5 people. Or maybe base it on how many posts to a sub per day.
  • If you're found to be breaking these rules in some way, ban all accounts for that person from gaining karma, in perpetuity.
  • Overall make modding feed less into the average redditors narcissism
  • Rename it from mod to janitor, since that's all they should be doing.
Although none of this will actually fix the problems of reddit, mainly being it's a giant echo chamber and modding attracts narcissists who will force their worldview on everyone else.

Nah man.

Communities require moderation for two reasons.

Spam and wrongthink.

An AI bot could easily take care of the first one. As for the second one, there is a very easy solution: Don’t clutch your pearls every time someone tries to bait you with “tranny”, “nigger” or not being insufferably politically correct.

You know, kinda like Reddit before it got pozzed?

change mod tools to hide posts instead of removing them. Similar to twitter hide reply feature.

the mods will throw a hissy fit and private some subreddits, but if admins threatens to remove some of them and replace them, they will fall in line.

And why do you think reddit got pozzed?
Websites where the mods do the bare minim by removing spam and illegal content rarely become the dung heap reddit currently is. It was reddit's admins who turned the website into what it currently is: they promoted the influx of genderfreaks, commies and SJWs by sanitizing the website through draconian rules, selective bans against "politically incorrect" subs like r/FatPeopleHate and r/TheDonald, fostering the creation of echo chambers and letting jannies accumulate ridiculous power and letting them use and abuse it with impunity whenever the target is wrongthink.

You’re absolutely correct.

Those who could see which way the wind is blowing, knew it was the beginning of the end when the banned fatpeoplehate.

First they came for the fat haters, and I didn’t care because they weren’t nice.

Then they came for the transphobes and I didn’t care because live and let live.

Then they came for thedonald and I didn’t mind because I don’t vote.

Then they came for my Star Trek subreddit, and there were nobody left to care except troons seething and dilating.
 
My idea to fix a website such as reddit is thus. To have more than one subreddit moderation position, an account must provide user identity to reddit to be a super mod. In the super mod role, one may only moderate five or less subreddits.

Anyone caught violating these rules are perma ip banned.

The biggest problem with Reddit now is that every fucking subreddit is the same as every other subreddit. For all intents and purposes, it's a dead website in terms of what it's supposed to be since no matter what community you visit, you get the same fucking comments, posts, and moderation.

The same thing happened on Something Awful ~2006 and had ruined the site by 2008. A lot of the mods from AHS and ShitRedditSays were/are former goons which I'm sure there is no connection.
