So how does this work in reality though? Most of the feed is sponsored content. Does that mean that for paid users they would only see posts from their own friends? As in, they get the intended experience of fb?

Imagine paying to get the product a company pretends it is delivering for free. And they still mine your data to sell to the highest any bidder.

Why is the focus only on identifying AI generated photos? Why not force a tag on all AI generated content period? That would help with a lot of applications.

Well that kind of makes sense. After everyone left reddit, people came here and we’re getting told to start communities left and right. I think the new mods need to learn how to do things in a more structured way.

For all it’s flaws, reddit has built a decent system for helping mods get started, even if a lot of the actual support is provided directly by other mods and not by reddit itself.
