Which is literally why lemmy is the only possible replacement. It’s the only path for users to choose not an evil corporation. Hypothetically reddit could operate an instance, and we could all give them the finger and block/defederate from them. We have to foster the growth of niche hobby, community, and activity boards though. It can’t all be left leaning politics and meme shit posting. We need to encourage those who share expertise to come contribute. That lemmy is the defacto aggregate forum. It is the only form factor corporate ownership can’t swallow up.

How will employees raise for any kind of cap-ex? This simply does not work in practice.

Edit to gibberish, then delete. Sure they have the history, but it’s harder to walk back edits at scale than it is mass deletion when cleaning data.

Terrorism for thee, not for me.

This is nothing new it’s just faster. The very same lack of guardrails would allow a new, inexperienced employee, or a disgruntled employee, do the very same damage. AI just speed runs everything. If your AI can nuke prod accidentally, you failed to have the appropriate guardrails in place plain and simple. It is the same failure as before. Every time this happens, it is someone operating wildly out of their depth and why product people can’t just vibe. Now more than ever, experienced engineers are essential.

11y account, 108k karma. Repetitively banned by their ai moderation. The latest, like many, overturned by a human, the content restored, and it immediately received a community award. But their ban automation fanned out and banned all my accounts. Because I was banned. Which was overturned. I’m banned for being banned by an ai, despite that ai being overruled. They will not respond to my appeal.

So anyways now I’m getting oriented on lemmy and will contribute here. Reddit can suck it. Their only value was human contribution from the community and they’re working hard to snuff that out.

And leave your phone and anything else that emits any kind of radio signal at home. Headphones, smart watch, bus pass with nfc, stuff like that.

Also keep your clothing plain and generic. They’re classifying with stickers and logos too.

Producing software is not free. Serious projects need to be able to commercialize, it can’t always be for passion and vibes. But it can be done tastefully, there is a difference between shilling slop and monetizing a serious project.
