“Q3 was a strong quarter,” Huffman said on Thursday’s earnings call, in which he lauded Reddit as being “for humans by humans” and seemed to take a subtle dig at AI slop (the low-quality AI content clogging corners of the internet): “Reddit is in a unique position; we’re not trying to be the next anything. We’re focused on being the best version of ourselves and what the internet needs most: a place where people can connect on almost any topic and find genuinely useful information.”

    I’m not saying I agree with it, but this is the actual meaning of the word:

    Spoiler

    The term jailbait existed long before the subreddit and is used to refer to underage girls that are sexually attractive, therefore they are “baiting” you to go to jail by having sex with them.

    Oh, and the posts on the subreddit were non-nude photos of underage girls the posters thought were attractive. It was very gross.

      For some reason I subscribed to your definition IRL, but thought it meant “of age, doesn’t look like it”, which I suppose is how porn sites use it.
