Reddit is slowly dying. It will eventually be 100% bots.
Replying to @cmnybo@discuss.tchncs.de
Anything with an even mildly AI-adjacent topic is a solid 75% bots right now…
/r/nvidia, /r/amd, /r/hardware, etc, etc…

the “meat” is where all the propaganda can target like the front page subs.
Replying to @Tollana1234567@lemmy.today
Absolutely. Frontpage stuff like /r/politics has been mostly bots & trolls farms since well-before the AIpocalypse. AI just took much of the burden off the human hand on that rudder.
