Surprising nobody, Reddit Corp threatening a gaming sub of a fanatically anti-corporate video game doesn’t go as they’d hoped.
The mod team have basically decided that “Fuck Reddit” is the way forward, and appear to have practically total support of their entire sub for the choice taken.
Presumably, we’re about to get a Cyberpunk community on Fediverse soon. :p
I can’t help but think of 4chan’s unofficial tagline of “trolls trolling trolls trolling trolls”.
The joke used to be that “everyone on Reddit is a bot except you”, but as that has become more a reality than a joke, it’s morphed into “text-AIs trolling text-AIs trolling text-AIs”.
A shame it doesn’t [t]roll off the tongue quite as nicely.
Am I also a large language model? Let me answer that with another question:
Do you remember that bit in The Matrix Reloaded where Agent Smith occupies Bane out in “reality”?
Haha. Nothing like that. I’m human. Honest.
