    Unless they get creative this likely won’t do anything but piss off the human users. Research from a couple years ago found that bots are better than people at captchas.

      That was pretty much always an option. Just a setting. The problem isn’t mods, though some of them are part of the symptom.

    Sounds like Reddit wants to ensure that 90%+ of all traffic gets blocked.

    I read only one community on old.reddit.com, with VPN on. The moment they start asking for login there will be the moment my last contact with that site goes away.

    Let them drive their userbase further away. They have not learned their lesson in 15 years.

    So they will break the system more. I opened my Reddit account and shadow-banned after two days later and didn’t even receive any reason for that. I swear Reddit will be better place if they just stop to alter it.
