I think the most important point is that its competent ineffective for thwarting LLMS. They will be trained using the original data.
Also, if any significant portion of users nuked their comment history it would be trivial for reddit to block the user and undo the edits.
It would be trivial from a procedure standpoint, but not from a social one. It would be really bad reputation for Reddit - “this site doesn’t allow you to remove your content from it”. Problematic specially in Europe.
No one cares about their reputation.
This is blatantly false, as advertisers pulling off from Twitter show. Something similar happened in Reddit a few years ago.
They do care about brand reputation. Don’t lie (or worse, assume) that they don’t.
Nonsense. What happened with the 3rd party apps thing? Mods were staging strikes, resigning, protesting. Pretty much worst possible case for brand rep.
They just held their ground, users continued, advertisers didn’t/ don’t care.
Don’t labour under the illusion that some kind of people power exists.
For every 1 user that cares about this there are 100s of thousands that just plain don’t care.
