    I could give a well thought out comment about AI, scraping the web, giving your end users a worse experience in order to copyright their content for your own benefit, or any number of subjects.

    However, all I can muster is this:

      I swear I read they’re doing it with Lemmy too

        Since multiple Lemmy instances show the same, federated, content, I wonder if our posts will have more weight in the model, for a normal scraper it would be as if many people repeated the same thing over and over on different sites.

          It would be trivial to remove duplicates. With a little bit of foresight they could just as easily avoid the duplicates in the first place.

            They could also avoid to re-crawl the whole internet every day, but here we are, so who knows.

        Everything that’s freely accessible on the internet has been scraped 400 times over.

        I’d imagine they’d be doing it for the whole fediverse. I mean from their perspective, why not? The whole open nature, in my limited understanding, seems to make that easier.

    lol it’s not Reddit’s content to paywall in the first place.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.
