The 2 biggest psychopaths join forces, true crime people, and tech bros

I don’t like when people say “AI just traces/photobashes art.” Because that simply isn’t what happens.

But I do very much wish there was some sort of opt-out process, but ultimately any attempt at that just wouldn’t work

“Our logo is our most recognizable asset. That’s why we’re so protective of it.” -Twitter’s (Currently Outdated) Brand Toolkit Page

Yeah, this “Omg Facetrash lost all their users, they have such a dead platform lol” is stupid. I dislike Meta, but it’s a new social media, of course not every single user who checks it out will stay, that’s how it is for all new social medias, video games, anything

Ah, that’s fair. Do you think you’ve changed your mind on it, or do you believe that it’s sort of a con of these platforms?

I wouldn’t be surprised if this was done through cryptocurrency like Reddit’s done before.

A few years ago Reddit started to give community specific cryptocurrencies depending on how much karma the user got. I think it was only launched on the Fortnite and Cryptocurrency subreddits, and I’d say giving cryptocurrency to a community of mostly young Fortnite fans seems immoral, but not surprising for Reddit.

Thank god it’s only 1% alcohol. Wouldn’t want to put anything harmful in my body

Ah, I’ve used Photopea for years now and I never would have thought it would have functioned on mobile. Thanks for the tip!

Maybe I’m crazy, but I kinda doubt that this is likely to be killed off. It’s not it’s own platform like Reddit, it just takes content that’s more likely to be made by people from websites like Reddit, blogs, and other social media platforms and puts it all in one place.
But who knows with Google.

I don’t follow news with Epic much, but what do they have to do with Starfield or physical games?

Last time Bethesda said anything about the Elder Scrolls 6 they said it was in preproduction. I doubt they’ll really start working on it until Starfield is out.

“No no no, the different instances and stuff aren’t competing. You see they all grow together”

Counterargument: Spiders are creepy

I hate living in a world where undercover agents are sent to all ages “Drag Queen Christmas” events

Yeah, it is very possible for us to not let Meta win. Acting like the Fediverse is doomed isn’t productive at all.

Glad to be here for the first true piece of Lemmy history o7

Beehaw said that they blocked some instances like lemmy.world because they were getting lots of trolls and hateful people from those instances, and they don’t have the moderation tools to ban each offending account, so their best option was to defederate from those instances.

Beehaw admins did say though that they were willing to refederate, and I believe are working with some of the admins of the other instances to refederate.

But I also believe that the job of the Beehaw devs shouldn’t make the platform that is the easiest to migrate too, but instead should be to make the platform that is best for their community.

Why are people so upset about Beehaw being quite exclusionary?

When I first learned about the Fediverse part of the appeal was that some instances would be open, some would be more exclusive, and that was part of the appeal. Don’t like how open/exclusionary one is? Then leave and go to a different one.

Defederation is a feature of the Fediverse, and using it isn’t some big crime.

There is no other way to protest for big subreddits currently. If you completely private your sub, reddit admins will replace you with mods that will keep it online.

The only real way to do it is to keep moderating, but make the content of the sub extremely boring, like just pictures of vacuums

Never really understood the hate for AntiWork, also never really visited it that much though.

I remember some user posting about how their boss made them like barbeque once a week, and a few comments were about how somebody should crosspost it to r/antiwork, and somehow they’d find a way to hate on it. Then when it was crossposted the comments were all positive, sharing how their bosses did similar things.
