For anyone looking for a gibberish generator to replace their Reddit content with, here's one. This shit is like poison for those large models.

For automatic edition I'm not sure on what people can use nowadays; back then just before the APIcalypse I've used power delete suite, I'm not sure if it still works and I'm not creating a Reddit account just to test it out.

Not that I’m against telling Reddit to fuck off in no uncertain terms, but won’t providing this kind of poisoning to AI training just make it more resilient to exactly this kind of thing?
