Am I crazy or are you arguing the same point? Scraping is not the same as API access. They closed off the API to everyone for dubious reasons so they can sell that content (both for ads and AI training)… Right??
No you’re not, the post was editted. The original one said it was all because of AI, the entire reason for the API change was to sell to AI companies.
Edit, now I’m in doubt, because if you edit a post that is shown somehow right?
Edit2, just to be clear my point is that Reddit content was never free, before and after the API change. It’s easier to get the content with a decent API, sure. But it was never free, just like the lawsuit the NY Times started.
