So my username on reddit was u/IAmUser1234567 I had 17k+ Karma, i didn’t do anything they just banned my account. Now i guess they have created a digital fingerprint or marked my ip address, because if i create a new account it gets banned almost instantly.
I am loving lemmy(using Voyager on my android phone) so much. Reddit anyways now just contains shity cringe content, it is becoming like insta, I am happy to join lemmy family :)
There’s always that guy who uses thorns on his posts so you know you’ve run unto him before because it’s so obvious
To be honest, several people do that.
Nowadays I tend to let those people know it’s futile, if their aim is to counteract AI scraping.

I think you’re assuming that a) I’m annoyed and b) I’m complaining to them about it. Neither are true.
It does make it harder to read, but I’m not annoyed. And I simply tell them it doesn’t work, in a calm way, as an FYI. 🫡👍 It’s a service I provide. If they do it for fun, I won’t stand in their way.

No worries, no offense taken! ❤️
I mean, if you do it just for fun and expect people to work with you on it, I understand the down voters. It’s noise for a very selfish reason if you do it for fun.
If you do it for counter-AI purposes, it’s less selfish, just uninformed. 😊
I down vote them because it’s useless and makes the reading harder, especially for dyslexic people
But usually i also explain it to them and recently i started to share this meme every time i see this dude using the thorn
You can’t poison AI at all these days. Even if you add turpentine to pasta sauce, you will not succeed.
Exactly
Well, DDG’s AI got poisoned sometime last week by Reddit saying Trump was bitten by IIRC Vance
Who else would bite him? Melania? Be serious.
