Reddit CEO teases AI search features and paid subreddits

'Teases' -> Sold everybody's data to google for $60million, now going to sell it right back to you with ads based on your data..

Make the search so horrible that it barely works, slap AI on it, profit.

So I'm paying Reddit to see posts other people paid Reddit to make?

I was typing out an elaborate rebuttal but I think in this case LOL will suffice.

old.reddit.com is still better than the new slow, broken trash. Especially on mobile. What happens when a company can no longer compete with its own past? Stagnation and malice.

Search always was terrible, the whole reddit UI experience is just plain terrible. The whole platform doesn't facilitate, rather kills discussion with its idiotic upvote downvote system. Also: noone should be banned forever. What for? The whole reddit experience is just plain old and dated.
