They just want to sell ads. Corporate profit moment.
Why not just charge a reasonable amount for the api then? It’s more complicated than that I think.
They also want the data but I wouldn’t be surprise if it’s more complicated
No, they want to steal data you create and profit from it, while offering nothing but spite in return.
If you make the data, the data belongs to you. That data has value, in spite of what Silicon Valley tech companies tell everyone. If it didn’t have value, then these companies wouldn’t be amongst the wealthiest businesses in the world.
I’m not that bad. C’mon now.
The last panel should be the fox digging a shallow grave for Apollo
No Fox, no! Don’t hurt my RiF!
I was framed.
Honestly, that’s not even the worst part of the whole API debaucle.
The issue with moderation tools alone is more than enough to shut their coffin shut, yet I don’t see reddit doing anything about that at all.
It really do be like that
You know they fucked up when ifunny users shit on them
Noo not my Foss
Truly a Corpo Reddit moment.
If they didn’t make all stupidly nearsighted decisions they could’ve been a leading AI company, especially with all those language data they’ve been collecting almost exclusively with all the spam filterations mods been doing for free. Stupid as hell.
