    Literally the only reason why I still bump into Reddit even when I’m not trying to.

    Here’s an example from real life. When I searched for “ipados brave yutube ads adblock”, I found some Reddit posts discussing the issue.

    Spoiler: Ditch brave and switch to something else.

    BTW, Reddit is currently in the “hold my beer” sort of state when it comes to shooting itself in the foot.

        I think you’re right. Reddit is in a really tough spot now that we’re living the early days of AI. IMO Reddit should make their own LLM and call it Snoo or something. This way, people could asks Snoo to solve all their tech issues.

          And that’s on a good day. Can you imagine how my spelling looks like in the morning before having coffee and/or when I’m standing in a train during the rush hour? It’s so far from human readable, that I’m inclined to call it a type of encryption.

            Let’s run this through one word at a time

            ipados - name of a product, trademarked, spelled correctly

            brave - normal English word, spelled correctly

            yutube - missing the letter “o”

            ads - normal English word, spelled correctly

            adblock - name of a product, spelled correctly. Not an extension available for the browser in question as far as I can tell, but that’s the kind of thing you find out when you google it
