2 years agogoood!
Reddit behaved in such a horrible way, that I feel like API pricing was the least of the bad…
One could argue about their fairness and aim to destroy 3rd party apps, and I had already closed my accounts at that very step.
But the way they treated mods, forced subs to open and behaved like pure evil assholes, I really see how companies or more “official” subreddits with a touch of interest in their users, would feel the desire to leave and close bridges
I don’t know about recent events, or chatgpt4 lately, but i reallly thing it has gotten far worse in the latest months, around the time when issues about protection of jobs against AI and ethical were arising.
I started web development in the last year and was desperately looking for a job, i learned React and Django and was really bad at those as well.
I just got a chance to land a fullstack job near my home, it required Node and Angular, liked my interview and wanted to test me in 2 weeks.
I really put a lot of effort and hours myself, followed documentations and tutorials, but i kid you not, chatgpt got me out of a looot of stupid issues i could not figure out, either syntax, or complete explanation of what i was wrong about, (i really don’t like and use copy-paste of its code, just because i needed to learn, not complete the project).
Landed that job with my boss even congratulating me on my assignment and got around with my tasks better than what i used to do with my own code.
Lately I feel it is waaay worse, maybe it’s me using it just to find out something i can’t already find anywhere else, but it’s not uncommon I paste in some code, and he spits out word for word the same thing i’m telling it is not working
