    Not gonna lie, isn’t that why were here technically? Reddit didnt want its API being used to train AI models for free, so they screw over 3rd party apps with it’s new api licensing fee and cause a mass relocation to other social forums like Lemmy, ect. Cut to today, we (or well I) find out Reddit sold our content to Google to train its AI. Glad I scrambled my comments before I left, fuck Reddit.

    Edit: Logged into my reddit account after 2 years. Every FUCKING comment I scrambled and had deleted on my 2nd account was unscrambled and restored. Meaning they got away with using my fucking comments. I’m so GODDAMN FUCKING MAD.

      They’re almost definitely trained using an archive, likely taken before they announced the whole API thing. It would be weird if they didn’t have backups going back a year.
