  Seriously, when are these bourgeoisie fucks gonna realize that any system designed to coerce or manipulate is inherently corrupting its own ability to be trustworthy, ethical or qualitative.

  moreover, i think it’s just weird that everyone expects generative ai to be as open and useful and free as it has been. it’s all to get us to trust and use it unknowingly, then they’re gonna start jacking the prices up. we’ve seen it before with cable television, internet, consumer goods like shoes and computer parts, and more. open source efforts have gone a long way, but it’s still all a tinkerers’ hobby, not a viable alternative.

  Yeah, honestly, the way things are set up isn’t perfect. I maintain a few accounts on different instances just to fan out what content I get. The Fedi is always gonna have issues with moderation and federation, I just don’t see it as a good enough reason to throw the baby out with the bathwater.

  Spez loves Elon. Wouldn’t surprise me if he was bending the knee to try and get Elon to buy Reddit.

  Well, I did that on my own to be honest. Not anymore, though, lol.

  Yeah I’ve been wondering if I actually got banned because I used old.reddit and a hacked Reddit app.

  I knew a Reddit admin IRL for a year or so. I visited him in the hospital when he was diagnosed with leukemia. I got my marrow tested to try and be a donor for him, and that bitch still doesn’t remember me.

  I got banned after 15 years for asking why we can’t organize to cyberbully Trump’s current head of social media: en.wikipedia.org/…/Steven_Cheung_(political_advis…

  This was in response to the White House calling Garcia a terrorist on their Twitter account.
