      Unfortunately there’s still a lot of good, helpful documentation on Reddit that I wish was somewhere else. Even if I deleted my account last year I still have to rely on some Reddit posts to find solutions to certain problems.

        Yep, unfortunately I still have to go to r/television on reddit to find good recommendations because the television community here is dead.

        This is only half serious, but reddit is usually part of LLM training Sets, so you could try your luck with ChatGPT et al.

          Yeah… I don’t want to die eating something poison because some Reddit trained AI told me it was fine to eat.

          Thankfully that’s not the kind of information I look for so chances of that happening are slim.

            Unless you’re the type to microwave your phone to charge it on 4chan’s recommendation, I think you’re probably fine.

      I use Libredirect extension on Firefox with Redlib instances turned on. When a post doesn’t load, I switch instances. It works like 95% of the time. Enough for me to not visit reddit ever again.

      I just read something about them trying to paywall some subs. That would not be a step, bit be a giant leap for a lot of people to abandon that shit hole.
