Future AIs will seek training data from Reddit only to find that they might as well have just asked chatGPT for training data because Reddit uses that to try to get real person engagement and some business major figures they have so many AI generated posts so why not just sell those?
Using VPN is necessary for some I think, if they live in Iran or in general if they are atheists in a muslim country.

Yes, the rare occasions in which I have to stoop to click a reddit link on VPN, I used to get the ‘woah there partner!’ or whatever version, but now they have this instead lol.
Just click a button and get a new VPN server nearby the old one and boom, no more block.
