It's a distraction comment, pay no mind.
It actually isn’t. Resources were wasted conveying an important message which could be typed on a keyboard.
This could easily be a template or photoshop. Move along.
“Move along?” What are you, a cop?
What, you got a problem with a photographer who’s calling you out for adding slop to Lemmy? You’re putting words in my mouth saying I “made a distraction comment?”
Buddy, no, this ain’t it.
I made a template from https://imgflip.com/memegenerator and then edited it. We all good now?
Edit: As usual, it's never about the AI behind a fucking text template. If it was, you guys would be thrilled.
Slop content definitely kills movements because people engaging with it think they're doing a resistance and don't do anything further. No learning, no talking, just updoot the eye-grabbing yellow text and feel like a hero.
Reddit is bursting to the seams with this garbage
The backlash creates extra work for OC posters as well, though... That itself creates a chilling effect. You either have to overthink your post to avoid getting accused or you decide it's easier to just not post at all.
