What's the deal with the recent activity on the old subreddit?
(awful.systems)
Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.
AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)
This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.
[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]
the official word on our end is: no idea! we’re monitoring @mawhrin@awful.systems’s post over there with interest.
in a typical reddit fashion the post is getting downvotes despite just asking the obvious question.
I'm a bit weirded out that new posts on a year dead subreddit suddenly get ~50-100 upvotes
People are still subscribed to the subreddit. When a post gets made, it goes on their reddit feed. Lots of mobile users in particular will just have seen it pop up while doomscrolling.
