I keep thinking this would have been a much better sell to devs and to users. I have always used Sync, and Boost. I tried the official app a few times, but really only used it for the chat feature. I didn’t want to pay for it, but (I am embarrassed to admit it) I would pay premium to keep my app. I think this would have worked out better for Reddit than the garbage they are pulling right now.
Would that have been a more reasonable solution in your opinion as well?
The intentionally part is my only difficulty. I’d not realized until last week just how many search results were Reddit threads. I need to start excluding Reddit from my search results.
Yeah, google search is a pain without reddit, I setup a WIndows VM to try Bing Chat, I’ll see how it goes.
I don’t use ChatGPT because I don’t want to give them my phone number, Bing Chat only requires an email and that’s fine for me (got a throwaway one just for that).
The fiasco has broke google results since the protest…I am not sure Google is going to keep prioritizing those results of it ends in a poor user experience.
