Reddit, Twitter. I don't understand why they are putting so much effort into making sure that people can't use them comfortably. I always thought there should be as few barriers for the user as possible, otherwise they might drop out. Are these platforms more concerned about selling data for LLMs now?

They want to force people to use the app so they can steal their data easier. That's my guess lol.

Fascists want to control or shut down hubs of anti-fascist discourse/organization.

Tiktok too.
