Honestly, I think the more reliable curated information will be what I miss the most. I almost always append a Google search with “Reddit” - because the information and format are so much more reliable than the bot populated garbage sites.
Already today I’ve made probably 15 Google searches with the “reddit” suffix only to be met with privated subreddits. It’s a grim feeling, considering my undying support for sticking it to Reddit rn. It kind of feels like passing by the place old restaurant that was always nasty and unhygenic yet had delicious nostalgic food, and remembering that the place eventually closed down and you won’t get that experience anymore.
I think ChatGPT is going to mean Reddit and similar sites will also become bot populated garbage. There was just now a major problem with this in /r/programming.

I think we all learned to do that eventually. It’s like losing an encyclopedia

I think even people who weren’t on reddit knew that that was a useful trick.

It’s likely to happen here too, no?
This is me exactly :/
