   If you've ever posted anything on Reddit, your words are going to be sucked up into an "AI" database. The people who profit from this are Reddit and the "AI" company.

   What do you get? Screwed, again, by tech companies that have pure contempt for your privacy and rights.

     @kbsez @dangillmor There is a third alternative, which I made. It federates with kbin and lemmy: https://piefed.social.

     I'm very savory, I promise.

     I made the mistake of deleting my Reddit account before deleting the (relatively few) posts I'd made there. If you're planning to depart, make sure you delete posts first, account second.

     I really want to be done with Reddit like I am with the bird site but the alternative in #KBIN just isn't working --- the other alternative #Lemmy is run by some unsavory characters so I'm not going there....

     @ademir_lemmy_br I don't understand. Is there something I should know?
