So you come to a completely different and unrelated website (and community) to complain about it while using AI to write your post? I don’t mean to be rude, but this is a bit unpleasant.
If you’re leaving Reddit in favour of Lemmy then you’re welcomed. But keep in mind, we are not Reddit and don’t want anything to do with it. Also, keep your instance’s rules and those that may apply to the community to which you are posting. If you don’t like your current instance you can migrate to a new one or make your own.
Welcome to Lemmy
LLMs are great for rewriting your own words. It makes people more confident and it’s what LLMs excel at anyway. It’s not generating something out of thin air, i.e. taking away creative proces, in this case.
You’re not speaking for all of us. People can talk and complain about anything they want. We don’t need this kind of thought control here.
I find it ironic that I used AI to sound more human — and the mod in this instance used AI to act less like one. Rather than check to see why the bot removed my post, he simply surrendered to it as an authority.

I still fuck with reddit some but I do it read-only. I have a couple accounts because it’s the best place to get information on certain video games and niche hobbies.
But I do refuse to participate, I only lurk. Fuck that corporation, I contribute nothing and take only data center time.

Do you block their ads? Even if you do, they use your page view numbers to sell slots to ad companies at a higher price.

So they inflate the page view to the ad companies while the ad companies won’t get anything out of your page view. So it’s a win win :)

So then Reddit makes more money because they can charge more for an ad slot due to higher page views. There is no way to use Reddit without them making more money.

yeah, I don’t see very much advertisement on the entire web but definitely none from reddit, even those inserted “post” ads seem to go away with a combo of Ublock Origin and Privacy Badger.
