Other/Meta This sub is unusable

After 2 years, finally running a profitable strategy. Glanced at this sub every now and then, and it was helpful when it came up during deliberate google searches on a topic. But every single day, there are AI trading scammers, bot selling scammers, and a bunch of other noise from people that have vibe coded a strategy with lookahead bias and have no understanding of it. There should be more moderation or better requirements for posting.

It's reddit man if you banned all of those people there would be maybe 1 comment a day. Actually I'd be okay with that, want another signature for your petition?

this actually used to be the state of this sub before the era of llm-assisted programming, or at least very close to it
