The difference is that Lemmy admins across the fediverse aren’t making the user experience worse so they can sell the data to corporations for LLM training
So it's really that the user experience is getting worse. Feeding ai has nothing to do with it.
First of all, tacos are friends, not food..
Secondly, I think it’s more important what they did to achieve this goal, locking down the API behind a paywall was their way of creating value in their data. They knew then that it would be too expensive for independent developers to pay for but didn’t care. They knew the money would be coming AI data brokers.
I'd rather have AI companies have my data for free than reddshit gettong paid for it
