  • Diaspora isn’t, and I’m not sure if it has activity pub support at all? Most other things are. APub is turned on for Friendica (DFRN protocol) by default, and Hubzilla (Zot protocol) allows you to enable it pretty easily.

    My line gets drawn based on what they’re made for. Friendica, Mastodon, GoToSocial, all of the *key forks, are all similar enough that I just have one account for all of them. They’re for microblogging.

    Lemmy isn’t for microblogging, it’s a link aggregator/community forum-adjacent thing. It’s different enough in function that I want a different account/client for it, especially if we’re talking mastodon because Lemmy floods mastodon feeds.

    If I cared about Bookwyrm, I’d have another account, same with PeerTube, etc. They feel different enough to the microblogs that I just prefer having accounts specific to them.


  • For all the alternatives out there truth is, none are really anywhere near perfect. Matrix and most of its clients while encrypted don’t offer true jump in /jump out game chat.

    After complaining about it heavily for a few days, I did find one client that has that same feel, commet.chat. I haven’t done a whole lot of testing yet, but from what I’ve seen/experienced, it’s close, if not there

    Personally I still prefer XMPP+Cheogram. It’s more Signal than Discord, but it’s a lightweight chat server with voice call abilities, and that’s what I needed it for




  • How do you feel about the fact that art created by AI this year is not much different from art created by humans?

    The banner on gog.com has a melting SNES, what are you on about?

    I think those who have seen it themselves understand what I mean.How do you feel about the fact that now and in the future, AI will do most of the creative work 80-90% instead of authors and humans, doing it at the highest level better than any human, and people will just train their AI models and create content with prompts?

    I feel like we have a different definition of the word “Facts” here. What you’re doing here is speculation, not fact. Facts about the future don’t exist. We’re sitting on a pile of very expensive tech that’s being subsidized predominantly by venture capital, and who knows what’s gonna happen to the tech after the venture capitalists come to collect on their investments. While I don’t think AI will cease to exist, I highly doubt it will be near as cheap to use as it is now, and unless it remains cheaper than human labor (unlikely, especially if we include training costs), I doubt we’re going to see it be as widespread as it is now.

    I doubt it’ll be 80-90% of creative work being done by AI.

    How do I feel about it? I don’t like that it’s being forced, and neither do most people. It’s being shoved down our throats when we don’t want it by people with money so they can make more money while further isolating us from base human needs. It’s fucking garbage.
