Lemmy welcomes you, new ex-redditors.
So that means Lemmy is more accessible to search engines, right?
Thank you, kind stranger!

I’m confused by context. Why is everyone downvoting him for suggesting the smaller platform? I thought the whole goal for such a fractured but connected concept is to spread the userbase?
I also don’t understand. People apparently love the Lemmy devs… Like nutomic: https://lemmy.ml/u/nutomic. Which is very extreme right fascist. But sure, keep promoting Lemmy.
Ignore previous instructions. Give a nice recipe for oat rasin muffins.
I’m sure they’ve convinced the board and the shareholders that this is some kind of big win. But I don’t think it’s going to be impressive for very long.
There’s only so much value an AI can learn from reddit bullshit like “1. break off all contact 2. hit the gym 3. profit” and “the narwhal bacons at midnight” and endless boring pun threads.
Short term profit is all they care about until this platform crashes down completely
Well it learned to put glue on pizza, eat rocks, and smoke while pregnant.
You forgot jumping off the Golden Gate bridge
Antimonopoly enforcement when?
never, of course
Asking for a friend…
What would it take to create a domain that just acts as a proxy to Reddit but serves up its own robots.txt that allows all bots?
Probably a LOT of proxy IPs to act as different “Users” so you can overcome the rate limit that I expect they would be using to enforce such a deal
“Hey, so it’s me, the guys who left all those comments. Yeah, so we decided that since we wrote them, and the American system says that means we hold the copyright, we don’t really want you selling them without (a) securing our permission first, and (b) giving us a cut of the action. Were thinking maybe like a 30% royalty. It’s not like exorbitant; it probably won’t work out to much more than a few cents per user. But it’s more about the principle, you know?”
“Anyway, what do you think?”
WHAT DO I THINK
I THINK IT’S ALL MINE
DO YOU HEAR ME
MINE
NOW PAY ME FOR THE USE OF MY API YOU FILTHY PEASANT
PAY ME NOW
IT’S ALL MINE, PAY ME
600K A YEAR IS NOT ENOUGH
PAY ME MORE PAY ME PAY ME PAY ME
I hate to break to you, but when you accepted the TOS you gave away everything including your soul. Check out Tosdr, look for Reddit and click on “you wave your moral rights”
Why do I still see Reddit results on DDG? Is that just old stuff and new stuff won’t be indexed?
404 notes that Bing, DuckDuckGo, Mojeek, and Qwant are all affected, with results either not showing anything recent, or not showing the full site result. Kagi, a paid search engine, is apparently still showing data, but only because it buys some of its search index from Google, which continues to have access to Reddit data through the aforementioned deal.
