Mostly this. I habitually add "site:reddit.com" to like anything if all I'm getting is bullshit generic articles. I keep getting forcefully reminded that every sub worth visiting is boycotting today. Hopefully that'll help me break the habit lol
Biggest habit I'm going to have to break when I'm searching for stuff online now as well, trying to search through the bs articles and avoid Reddit has become quite the task
I have already tried doing this a few times, even replacing Reddit with Lemmy, despite knowing what the result would be. It's a fun exercise until I need to sit and read through the fluff in standard articles.
The place was curated. That's the reason spez claims it was being scrapped by AI models.
r/personalFinance was helpful, if not repetitive at times, but there were so many people posting. There was always at least a few decent posts with different opinions. I'm surprised I haven't come across a replacement here yet.
lmao i will miss seeing "7k in CC debt, should I take out a personal loan at 29.99 interest rate?" 5 times a day
Me too. You can find nearly everything in reddit however obscure it is. Reddit is also a great place for finding answers ever since most websites became seo-optimized ai-generated content, making googling pretty much useless unless you add reddit to the query.
