The J in PB&J is generally for jelly, as in fruit preserves, not Jello.

Fruit preserves are generally made using pectin which is not derived from bones.

I'm just wasting tokens asking it for jokes or a news summary or just saying hello because there's a metric for daily GenAI usage.

Occasionally I will use it for real, but mostly it's just a waste. Wonder how much it's costing the company.

I don't trust reddit reporting that value accurately. Not saying it is a huge percentage, but they likely doing some things to minimize the numerator and maximize the denominator.

But yeah, definitely about control. They could have monetized users on third party apps with more reasonable API pricing. People would probably have barely noticed and that'd be new revenue for reddit that didn't exist before.
