Random Rant: I feel like reddit died after they banned all the “unmoderated” communities. All the posts became sanitized. Now reddit is adding AI and streaks and NFTs to keep people on a platform that has no more content.

Yeah I still don’t get why people use Discord, it’s so shitty and knowledge just gets locked up there to die
Well look here, for instance:
https://old.reddit.com/r/LocalLLaMA/comments/1mpk2va/announcing_localllama_discord_server_bot/
Looks like a combination of:
A power trippin’ mod looking to promote their discord.
A feeling of nowhere else to go as Reddit enshittifies.
Unawareness that https://sh.itjust.works/c/localllama exists because Reddit shadow bans anyone who links Lemmy.
And this is literally a self-hosting community… Look at the comments, they all know Discord is bad, but the mood is “WTF else are ya gonna do?”
For some context, localllama itself is kinda a refuge from Twitter/Linkedin spaces filled with Tech Bro stink, and it’s already been shattered by random niche LLM Discords (like BeaverAI, which you will find in another thread).
Same reason people never bothered to do a proper search when all knowledge on the internet was indexed on forums - people can’t be bothered, and want another person to find information for them before they make a real effort to find it themselves.
This. If it isn’t 0 effort, people won’t do it.
