No, I guess because it has nothing to do with productivity.

It’s usually about justifying costs of real estates or property of commercial buildings.

Big companies usually own buildings dedicated to offices for their workers, maintaining them is expensive, having everyone working from home would mean rendering their properties useless.

So they come up with all possible stupid PR excuses about it, the company I work for does the same, but we employees know, if the company openly told the truth about it, I believe many people would revolt.

Has every site adopted clickbait headlines as a default these days?

I guess they have to justify the costs.

Can’t wait for the AI bubble to burst, can’t happen soon enough.

You’re right, tho AI tools are not so dissimilar from each other, so unless reddit developed their own proprietary tool (which I doubt), any tool can give you a rough idea of what AI can “tell” about you.

my script doesn’t just delete, it also edits the post and inserts “.”

That’s smart! It could actually trick the backups, since backups don’t check the content they’re actually saving.

That being said, they have backups, even more so since they started selling reddit data to AI companies for training.

I seriously doubt deleting your comments would do anything on that side, tho it does make them deleted from “normal” user searches.

That’s … concerning. Kudos to that mod for making people aware of it.

Apparently anyone can do that, so I tried mine out of curiosity (I’m not a mod, never have been): https://reddit-wrapped.kadoa.com/ulu-mulu-no-die?share

This Redditor is basically a gaming savant with a spreadsheet addiction, meticulously dissecting game mechanics and then dropping mic-drop guides for the masses. When not optimizing virtual real estate or factorio builds, they’re busy troubleshooting Linux like a digital mechanic, all while subtly reminding us that their ‘fun’ involves more calculations than most people’s taxes. They’re the kind of person who’d analyze their Reddit Wrapped to see if the algorithm correctly identified their ‘efficiency at leisure’ metric.

I’ve read the entire profile and it seems to me more like satire than an actual serious summary (quite some hyperbole in there), tho it’s worrying that your entire reddit history can be analyzed so quickly.

This thing can end very badly in the wrong hands.
