Just more confirmation that the decision to leave Reddit was the right and best one. Bots, AI and farms will be all that's left on Reddit if this goes through.

But I do wonder how a company that hasn't been profitable ever will be able to afford to pay these creators since any cut of ad revenue or award purchases just cuts into the already non-existent profits.
