Yeah, same thing that has happened in several other countries. Google is supposed to pay companies to advertise their news stories through search results, and google refuses to do that meaning they have to block news websites in that country.

Depends, I was mainly active on small subreddits that were focused on things I was interested in. Here those small subs don’t exist yet (or are very inactive), but the lower overall user count means I’m interacting with a lot more communities than I would on reddit.
Original stable diffusion wasn’t trained by individuals, but clearly the current progression of the software is largely community driven. All sorts of new tech and add-ons for it, huge volumes of community trained checkpoints and Lora’s, and of course the interfaces themselves like automatic1111 and vladmatic.
And it’s something you can run yourself offline with a halfway decent graphics card.
Looks super nice, but won’t let me log in to my instance.
A lot of the AI stuff is a Pandora’s box situation. The box is already open, there’s no closing it back. AI art, AI music, and AI movies will become increasingly high quality and widespread.
The biggest thing we still have a chance to influence with it is whether it’s something that individuals have access to or if it becomes another field dominated by the same tech giants that already own everything. An example is people being against stable diffusion because it’s trained by individuals on internet images, but then being ok with a company like Adobe doing it because they snuck a line into their ToS that they can train AI off of anything uploaded to their creative cloud.
Yeah, and the user experience matters a lot right now. The reddit blackout is the best chance for rapid Lemmy/fediverse growth, so giving the best user experience right now is critical. Users who are new to the fediverse are already confused by the multiple instances, adding in extra conditions like “don’t join these communities because you can’t interact with this community” adds an extra level of complexity and makes the fediverse seem fractured and flawed as a first impression.
Beehaw’s decision to defiderate may have been the best short-term decision for them, but I feel like it’s a terrible decision for the rest of the fediverse and will hurt growth.
The “no stupid questions” content we are all here for.
Thanks for sharing. I put a request in and I’ll see how comprehensive the data is.
Yeah same, I’m from FMHY as well and I’m really confused as to why everyone is saying FMHY.
I picked it because I skipped over the first couple large communities looking for smaller ones that allowed everything. Didn’t really care about the piracy aspect at all.
I haven’t tried Element X, but I’d like to recommend SchildiChat as a good matrix client for desktop and mobile. My understanding is it’s a fork of element, but it works much better and more reliably in my experience. Element was very inconsistent about fetching messages for example.
