Their goal is not to be a Reddit alternative or to replace the fediverse. Maybe in the long run it will have a larger user base, but for now they want to remain on the smaller size. Which is fine, there is room for multiple websites. It’s a good thing everyone isn’t located in one source. Things can be across lemmy, mastodon, Kbin, tildes, squabbles, etc.

Bioshock inifnite, one of my favorite games. Can’t remember what I even had on my phone before this

In memory of the Apollo app.

Seems a difficult these days. I saw my niece last year who was in kindergarten at the time, and she was given a tablet by her school where she did all her homework and homework related video games. She’s also recently started learning photoshop and she’s 6 now. The way humans interact with technology will always keep changing. Some bas, some good.

The interesting thing about Tidal is that is was originally owned by artists (Jay-Z, Beyoncé; Kanye West; Madonna; Jason Aldean; Alicia Keys; Arcade Fire; Coldplay’s Chris Martin; Rihanna; and deadmau5) Who have since sold off a majority share to Block, while Jay-Z kept a board seat and other artists still have shares. Curious if it will last.

It’s like the world is desperate to recreate AppleTV+’s show Extrapolation, where companies just kept negotiating to raise the world temperature target cap. The red skies many people in the US were seeing were finally a wake up call to some.

  • The first few seasons of Red vs Blue
  • Back to the Future trilogy

Mostly playing devil’s advocate here (since I don’t think ai should be used commercially), but I’m actually curious about this, since I work in media… You can get away using images or footage for free if it falls under editorial or educational purposes. I know this can vary from place to place, but with a lot of online news sites now charging people to view their content, they could potentially be seen as making money off of copyrighted material, couldn’t they?

Didn’t even think to try scaled. It most definitely is showing more diverse posts. Downside is that it brings back a lot of non english speaking communities. Still a good option for exploring though!

Almost to 10. 9yrs 6 months before I left.

This seems interesting

  • Do you have a list of your current defederated instances?
  • Will you have policies on how art is treated/attributed to?

This is a much longer response than I was expecting! This all sounds good to me. I’m glad to know you’ve already been thinking through all of this. One of my larger worries is seeing communities filled with bots posting ai art and taking over.

(Not that you’ll necessarily have an answer for this one, but a thought that popped up from your list) Speaking of nsfw, I’m curious how nsfw art content will end up on Lemmy. I remember there was eventually a lot of backlash on /r/art since the art ended up becoming mostly painted nude women, though I feel like Lemmy has less need to care about that kind of stuff since they are not worried about sponsors seeing nudity.

Given that I no longer have an app, my google search for “what’s the best for x? Reddit” has gone up. I’m sure many people are still using Reddit for that vs relying on google for the answers.

I eat this way and people look at me like I have two heads.

Oh shit, here we go. I did not know a sequel was coming.

I’m really surprised they went with Shadow instead of Metal Sonic. Thematically Metal Sonic fits with all the Robotnik arsenal happening in the stories. Shadow is more at the forefront of stuff now, so I guess that’s why. I assume Shadow will be good by the end of it, similar to Knuckles, and the final boss may still end up being a version Metal Sonic maybe?

Anyway to make the all page more diverse? I feel like it’s just 10 communities that appear there and it’s basically broken down to tech, memes and politics. I’m on lemmy.world and ysint voyager. Every once in a while I see stuff from sh.itjust.works.

I know when I used to use kbin, you first had to let your device sync with other instances before they started populating onto your feed.

This is the latest example that sparked it off again, but stuff like this has been going on for a decade. Many animators and vfx artists who work for high profile companies never get the final versions of their work and sometimes work on locked down servers where they can’t easily copy the work for themselves. They are at the whim of the company to provide them the files. Usually they are ignored so the artists resort to pirating the work to then edit it down and showcase on their websites and reels.

I didn’t know this! Thank you!

I knew about most of these, but had not stumbled upon casual conversation yet, thank you!

I hate, hate, hate, haaaaate, that the fake ai voices on short videos has leaked to YouTube and Instagram and anywhere else that hosts videos. I’m assuming that happened, because TikTok started off mostly as a Chinese company. People couldn’t speak English and used ai voices to remedy that and here we are.

A runner up is the downward trajectory of reaction videos. Now people are just pasting their floating heads nodding in the corner of a reposted content.

This piqued my interest. I’ll wait for the reviews. I didn’t think I’d enjoy Dead Cells, but it quickly became a favorite.

I was going to post a similar sentiment. Maybe I’m being overly critical, but I remember when news was “new”. A version of this article comes out every other day.

I have noooooo idea why. I was also amazed when I saw it. It was mostly choosing the correct colors and other rudimentary things.
