Great. The 3D printing subreddit was the stupidest shit ever.
Someone would post “My X axis motor isn’t moving left/right!”
And Reddit would reply:
It’s because you haven’t dried your filament!
I mean, it’s publicly available text, I don’t think any signing over was necessary.
A scraper would get blocked, API is paid now, and this is bad because it’s reddit enforcing their claim that they own the rights to the comments.
Some people were saying that exactly this kind of thing would happen, even before the AI hype, and encouraging everyone to just mass edit their comments to useless strings, then bail from reddit definitely. They were laughed off and called alarmists by the crowd that thought that a protest with a 72 hour deadline would somehow dissuade reddit from being dicks.
