Now Reddit’s not just promoting ragebait and AI generated stories, but divisive conservative rhetoric. Anyone else notice the non-political subreddits spontaneously hosting a population of chuds and propagandists where a few weeks ago they weren’t tolerated?
Has reddit changed the algorithm? Has some nation begun its bot operation? Has reddit deployed bots at musk’s behest? Has twitter sent its worst users to brigade? (All of twitter’s users are its worst users) I don’t know, but the effect is striking. All I’m certain about is that I’m avoiding reddit even harder now.
Definitely do not subscribe to any .ml instances. That was my mistake when I started. They will ban you as soon as you say anything negative about Russia (pre or post USSR, hilariously), China, tankies, authoritarianism, etc.
ml is a propaganda machine, filled with the type of narcissist auth scum who turned reddit into a cesspool around 2015.
