• The Reddit moderators who coordinate many celebrity AMAs will no longer do so

  They are referring to digg who set up most AMA. Source: about 1 year ago

• Reddit CEO Steve Huffman is fighting a losing battle against the site's moderators

  Or is it a success because Reddit Inc has shown its hand of not giving a shit about your average user and this site will bleed users as they, especially power users who actually post and moderate and build the communities in the first place flee to places where their countless hours of unpaid labor are appreciated (like lemmy, kbin, mastodon), and good old reddit becomes a ghost town like digg which is apparently...

• What did the Reddit blackouts actually accomplish?

  It's the great unraveling. Communities are torn asunder. It's could very well be the first step of Reddits fall. Or reddit will just look and feel very different afterwards. A husk of an aggregator. Go to digg.com right now to see what reddit might be. Source: about 1 year ago

• What's Your Take on Reddit's Plan to Sell Your Posts and Comments as "Data Licensing" to Other Companies to Train AI Language Models?

With a short amount of time and limited resources, you won't have the luxury of creating a collaborative filtering model....content-filtering is possible if you can also be resourceful with APIs + build crawlers.
