Reddit has filed for its IPO. They've been preparing for this for a while, squeezing profit out of the platform in any way that they can, like hiking the prices on third-party app developers. More recently, they've signed a deal with Google to license their content to train Google's LLMs.
To celebrate this momentous occasion, we've made a Firefox extension that will replace all your comments (older than a certain number of days) with any text that you provide. You can use any text that you want, but please, do not choose something copyrighted. The New York Times is currently suing OpenAI for training ChatGPT on its copyrighted material. Reddit's data is uniquely valuable, since it's not subject to those kinds of copyright restrictions, so it would be tragic if users were to decide to intermingle such a robust corpus of high-quality training data with copyrighted text.

I used it to help me build a hexapod, though I used a Raspberry Pi Pico instead of a Arduino, and yeah, a lot of it went like this.
Especially the recent versions do a lot of shunting of complex problems into comments saying "implement the logic here", with no clear idea of how to do it.
Wouldn't recommend unless you have some idea of programming.
