Hey all, Still occasionally dipping into Reddit but am finding myself gradually transitioning to Lemmy (shoutout to Memmy!). I was wondering if anyone here knows, what has reddit traffic been like these last few months? Is it declining or holding strong? Thanks

        Deeply skeptical. Mine is 15 years old with a few hundred k karma and it isn’t worth shit.

        People sell accounts but that’s a lie or a scam. No one offers that much. I got offered $200 for a 12 year old (at the time) account with 150k karma and mod of a small but not tiny sub.

        I too would like to contribute to Reddit’s bot overthrow by selling my 12 yr old account to the highest bidder. PM me your $$s.

        There was a shit ton of gpt model bots even when I was using it and they weren’t interested in doing anything about it so safe to say it’s only getting worse

      Hey, still really interested in seeing the source for this information. I’m not saying it’s not possible, but it’s a pretty huge claim, and I don’t want to repeat it without knowing the (or simply “a”) source.

        Source, go to reddit and read the comments of a top post of the day in a default sub.

        About half the comments are copy paste or literally generated by a chatbot. I know people there behave like NPCs but thats a new low. I think The Verge made a Article about it as well.

          I can’t go with “I know when I see it” dude it needs to be verified lol I can’t find the verge article. Again I want to emphasize I’m not saying it isn’t true, it sounds like something reddit would do absolutely, but you can’t just drop bombs like that without one source. Help me out here lol
