": if you replace the content of your posts/comments with nonsense, you'll make Reddit Inc. (including its CEO) lose money."
"There's a good chance that those API price changes were motivated by large businesses using Reddit to train their large language models (LLMs) with. Stuff like GPT-3, Google's BERT, Facebook's Galactica, stuff like this. In other words, your content will be used to train bots. (It is, already.)
Those models can be "poisoned" with random, machine generated nonsense. Poisoned data is worse than useless: it makes the model worse. So for each person replacing their Reddit content with nonsense, those businesses will be willing to pay Reddit Inc. less and less for API access."
"Here is a mini-tutorial on how to do this. It's for desktop users but you'll likely be able to do the same from a phone browser.
If you don't like Zompist's gen and/or Power Delete Suite, you can use any generator and/or Reddit mass edition tool of your choice."
and yes, i am somewhat still on reddit but i think i do more against them when my app does not work anymore (to spread lemmy or information) i will follow this process
Already deleted my 10+ years account, before i know this. And before i know that Reddit could easily revert back the changes that i've made. But what's done is done. Now i just want to focus on this Fediverse community. Never felt so great to be part of a growing community
I dont think reddit restoring stuff you wanted to delete from your account would be considered legal lmao
