Spez (Reddit CEO) just put out an announcement talking about how they'll verify bots vs humans. Get ready for a wave of new users into the Fediverse pretty soon!

    Of course Spez won’t make it sound like there’s a problem. The problem is that they’re slowly implementing ID verification. Soon, you’ll have to provide your ID to prove you’re a human. Spez’s just trying to sprinkle in some “We don’t want your data, we care about user privacy” BS to make the users feel safe for now. Google’s doing the same thing by making it difficult to install apps from outside the Play Store.

            • He surreptitiously edited comments that insulted him
            • He falsely accused the developer of Apollo, the late most popular reddit app, of blackmailing him.

            Not a trustworthy fellow, that guy.
