And make sure not to click on any links. If enough people use chatgpt or other LLM’s to generate comments that are wordy but clearly just filler, it’ll give advertisers pause and tank the value of the site as training data. Reddit’s response will probably be to start banning users it thinks are doing this but normal users will absolutely be caught in the crossfire.

And throw in normal comments every so often too so it’s not that obvious.

      It’s too much fluffing around. The absolute simplest and most effective thing you can do is to simply stop using Reddit. I guarantee that their selling point to advertisers is impressions. If they’re not impressing you, they’re selling less ad space - simple as that.

        But the content that many people have created (i.e. answers to questions) are going to be driving traffic to their site for YEARS, especially since Reddit is still getting 1st page hits on search engines.
