Thanks!

Why are the communist/socialist instances blocked by default and not like, maga? I see it’s blocked by my instance anyway, but thought it was weird to block those three considering there are much worse instances. I already unblocked them, so I don’t need help, I’m just wondering why.

There are two types of instance blocking: those that start off in each user’s block list, and defederation. The first one can be reverted by a user (what you have done) while the latter one cannot be changed by anyone but admin. So, MAGA instances are more likely to be defederated (along with spam-filled instances).

As for the communist instances blocked by default, I guess you mean hexbear and lemmygrad. These are authoritarian-leaning instances known to be pretty combative (and really liking China).

this is sweater indeed

I guess we have to disagree about whether this feature is dystopian or not. Have a nice day!

I can’t see how labeling a post as AI-gened in PieFed is gonna make you homeless, sorry. Unless you’re talking about the AI impact in general but then I don’t see how it’s related to your criticism of this feature.

Tagging posts as AI-gened is good NOW, not in a hypothetical dystopian future where people abandon you because your music was accused of being AI-gened. Maybe that future will never actually come, for whatever reason!

You aren’t isolated though, it’s just your single post that’s been labelled as AI-gened, and by PieFed doesn’t even hide the post from users. Also, I disagree that it’s any different: being banned because people thought you were bigotted when you didn’t mean to can be a brutal experience.

And if one mod/admin keeps accusing you in using AI then call out their behavior, avoid their communities and move on. Sometimes people are just assholes.

I disagree. Laughing at an AI-gened meme might be unpleasant (upon later realization) but it’s still better than wrongly accusing a person of using genAI. Especially if they work really hard on their craft and thus treat it like an important part of themselves. Artists already experience a lot of accusation under even their most human art.

Good idea but it won’t help with accidental AI posting - when OP genuinely didn’t know that the image was AI generated. The label can be set AFTER posting which is good.

GenAI labels should always default to “human-made”, with labels applied to generated stuff, not human-made. Also, being wrongly accused of using AI by a mod isn’t much different from being banned over a misunderstanding. It just means we need multiple mods per community and a full transparency of mod actions.

Personally, I see more benefits from having genAI labels.

Another piefed win

I don’t think LLMs will survive for so long

YEAH KILL PUSH THE SKELETON!!!

Here’s a screenshot for my first “game” on LOVE2d:

The creature just follows your cursor and can teleport if you press a button lol

Because AI-gened voices and graphics are terrible in their own right. They’re super unnatural and casually wander into Uncanny Valley.

Also I’m not paying for a product that wasn’t human-made. I don’t want to support those who waste their time talking to a chatbot like a moron.

No alcohol =/= not a true Kikuri /j

The ogres are angry because they can’t fit into the coffin :c

Doesn’t look like Kikuri but cool design nonetheless

Low price doesn’t necessarily lead to less profit though, since the lesser the price, the more people who will be able to afford it. The devs probably want to get as many players as possible to play Silksong.

It doesn’t help that all of the OG Doom developers except J. Carmack left id software years before Doom 3. No wonder it’s so different from its predecessors.
