Data shows a significant drop in ChatGPT's citation of Reddit content over the past three weeks.
- Data Shift: Reddit was once a top source, appearing in 1 out of every 22 citations; this has now fallen to about 1 in 430, a nearly 20x decrease.
- Speculation: The gap is likely filled by adjustments to "site parameters," suggesting OpenAI may have tweaked its search indexing strategy or reduced the domain weight for Reddit.
