I share your experienced frustration dealing with these morons. It's an advanced evolution of the redditoresque personality that feels the need to have a say on every subject. ChatGPT is an idiot amplifier. Sure, it's nice for small pieces of sample code (if it doesn't make up nonexistent library functions).

Compounding the problem is that Reddit-esque online culture rewards surface level correctness and black and white viewpoints so that stuff gets upvoted or otherwise ranked highly and eaten by the next generation of AI content scrapers and humans who are implementing roughly the same workflow.

Man reddit loves surface level BS. And then the AI bots repost it to look like legit accounts, and it generates a middlebrow BS consensus that has no basis in fuckin anything.

if it weren't for the fact that google and or discord are worse I'd have abandoned reddit ages ago

Yes, humans have always been the problem.
