I live in the Netherlands and speak German in addition to English. My Dutch is ... not that great.

Thanks to the geniuses at Reddit, I now frequently find posts on /r/de or similar German subreddits translated from my native language into one I'm worse at!

I noticed this "feature" after wondering why everyone was using "sie" instead of "du" while searching for reviews on reddit for a new graphics card I wanted to buy. This "shoving AI down your throat" is not just annoying, but also insulting and the accelerated enshittification of the web makes me sad. Thinking about "the good old days" also puts me in a state of nostalgia.

you can use old.reddit.com to avoid having stuff be translated.

Doesn't work for Google, it shows the translated titles and descriptions.
