Pre-warning to my followers: I'm going to leave #reddit for good and I'm blogging about the reasons - mostly because reddit management gone crazy (latest: my #firefox isn't working any more for reddit) & also because of https://karl-voit.at/2020/10/23/avoid-web-forums/
Tiens, j'ai reçu un email de #Reddit informant qu'ils rétablissent les "awards".
Pour qui ne connaît pas, c'est un peu comme des "reaction emojis" à des messages, mais payants, et illustrant généralement un accomplissement qu'une réaction. Je me suis parfois demandé pourquoi le "nouveau Reddit" avait décidé de les supprimer il y a un an. C'est de l'argent facile pour eux pourtant.
Oh, et les redditors peuvent maintenant être monétisés. Je ne sais pas trop quoi penser de ça en revanche.
I only lurk on #Reddit without an account - anybody want to tell this person the right address to contact? It's actually MassDOT, so they need to email MassDOTMaffaMystic@dot.state.ma.us as this traffic change was part of the Mystic /Maffa bridge project.
Been reading r/worldnews for a decade now and lately it has been really revealing what a propaganda machine it has become. Just got perma banned for pointing out that "legal war targets aren't necessarily ethically correct"
With Artifact gone, reddit basically gone - what other sources do you use for #geopolitics?
🇬🇧 The #meteor flew very visibly over #Portugal. Conditions were great for observing such a phenomenon. The beautiful effect was (accidentally) captured by many people. I recommend taking a look at #Reddit and watching some videos.
🇵🇱 Meteor przeleciał bardzo widocznie nad Portugalią. Warunki były świetne do obserwacji takiego zjawiska. Piękny efekt udało się (przypadkowo) uchwycić przez wiele osób. Polecam zajrzeć na Reddit i obejrzeć kilka filmów.
This is a #lisp machine for network protocols. Initially in pursuit of a social forum focused on link sharing.
as #startups and free projects alike rush to implement some #IETF RFC adding only 'but on the web'. I aim to define a modular protocol server which can support an arbitrary number of network protocols as a network daemon. Our POC in this endeavour will be to build an #NNTP -like protocol daemon which gateways to #IPFS storage. The content held in this system can be consumed by arbitrary clients; a web application presenting #reddit -like services would be just one of many potential clients, although it is likely that Gnus for Emacs will be the first one. https://codeberg.org/fade/callisto
#OpenAI strikes Reddit deal to train its AI on your posts https://www.theverge.com/2024/5/16/24158529/reddit-openai-chatgpt-api-access-advertising
“Reddit has become one of the internet’s largest open archives of authentic, relevant, and always up-to-date human conversations about anything and everything. Including it in #ChatGPT upholds our belief in a connected internet, helps people find more of what they’re looking for, and helps new audiences find community on Reddit,” #Reddit CEO Steve Huffman says.
I came across this #Reddit family drama from one of those narration YouTube videos and reading all of the original posts spanning several months was pretty bonkers! I don’t care if the story was an exercise in creative fiction or actually real because I was totally entertained. 😅
OpenAI Strikes Reddit Deal To Train Its #AI On Your Posts
Reddit gets access to OpenAI’s tech for building AI features, and OpenAI gets real-time access to Reddit posts that feed into ChatGPT. #OpenAI has also signed up to become an advertising partner on #Reddit.
It’s an agreement similar to the one Reddit signed with #Google earlier this year that was reportedly worth $60 million.
Hach ja, nun ist es hoch offiziell, dass Reddit nun deine Daten für OpenAI sammelt. Alternativen diesbezüglich im Fediverse hatte ich schon länger her vorgeschlagen, das ist @LemmyDev und/oder @kbin, die nicht an deine kostenlosen Daten verdienen (profitieren).
»OpenAI darf Reddit-Daten nutzen:
Die beiden Unternehmen wollen eng zusammenarbeiten – und voneinander profitieren.«
🧵 …weshalb und warum ich oben @LemmyWorld und @kbin hier im #Fediverse zum obigen Artikel vorschlug, ist kein neues Thema aber auf Deutsch so gut wie (fast) nie in der (Fach-) Presse angegangen. Wie auch andere Fediverse #Tool's sonst auch, die miteinander #kommunizieren.

»Lemmy and Kbin: The Best Reddit Alternatives?
Love #Reddit but tired of what's happening to it? We check out #Lemmy and #Kbin, two open-source fediverse #alternative's that are growing fast.«
Dopo #substack anche #reddit monetizza la sua kwnoledge base, creata attraverso i contributi spontanei dei frequentatori della piattaforma.
Sul punto non ho un'opinione forte: una comunità riceve ospitalità gratuita, ma quel gratis per altri ha un costo e il corrispettivo, in questo caso, èciò ciascuno ha scritto e che, una volta pubblicato, ha smesso di appartenergli.
Le regole erano sempre state chiare? E allora inutile lamentarsene ora #ownyourdata#ownyourweb https://www.ilpost.it/2024/05/17/reddit-accordo-openai/

Reddit brings back its old award system — ‘we messed up’ (www.theverge.com)
The company said it’s golden upvote system “missed the mark.” (Bwaahahahaha)
