I don't understand why you and others are so mad about this. Stackoverflow is a great resource that takes significant time and money to maintain. I don't have a problem with the maintainers making money by selling access to train AI on the data.
Having Stackoverflow as an alternative to reddit is important so that people aren't stuck using reddit.
This is becoming the norm. The ban system is totally broken as they're handing more and more tasks over to bad AIs. There are constantly tons of complaints from moderators about Reddit's various broken systems, including the ban system.
If enough people did it I think it would help stop people from going to reddit for info and make them seek out other websites.
Here you go https://sh.itjust.works/post/13700601. Most of the votes and comments are pro-reddit. And a user there also mentions another anti-reddit thread that the mods deleted for a pretty ridiculous reason.
A major reddit critic posts to lemmy and they get trolled or astroturfed, and their thread deleted.
Regardless, I've done what I can to try to get some communities to move to Lemmy, and they don't seem interested. So I think I give up for now.
