Yeah, like pretty much all platforms on the fediverse, they’re not owned by large companies, and don’t try ads or selling user data for profit
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

Do you mean Mark? Or is there a Jack at Meta that I haven’t heard about
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?
People seem to grasp onto weaknesses AI has now and say that they will have them forever, like how text AI lies, and image generation AI can’t draw hands.
But these AIs are advancing unimaginably quick, 2 years ago generated text was pretty bad, becoming pretty incoherent, and 1 year ago generated images were mostly strange mush.
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.

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.
A big similarity being Twitch and Reddit don’t create the content, they rely on users of the platform. Hope this becomes a message that users can’t be expendable

If it’s active users increased I’d be surprised, but if it’s not I wouldn’t be, most people probably don’t delete accounts when they stop using them
