Is that a screenshot of two screenshots, without context or explanation?
Yes. You're supposed to assume the worst and be outraged.
Engages pitchfork mode
The skeet they skoot was:
It is fucking infuriating (as a career developer advocate) to watch these smug dumbfucks condescend to anyone who doesn't mainline AI. It's okay, you're probably just too stupid to appreciate heroin
This apparently counted as four strikes, and they were suspended for 3 days as a result
Blue sky was never going to be good. It's like being surprised that the fresh mountain of shit is collecting flies.
No, no, you don't understand. BlueSky has a sign on their lawn that says "We're the good one, actually" and also "Not like Twitter, we're better and cool!"
So yea, they're a good alternative because... they said so!
On a side note... Who would have expected that a centralised app with a decentralised database is not going to abuse their power?
"But you can fork it!"
Yeah but I can also run a docker compose and point my nginx to it and oh it's a mastodon instance where I can truly feel at home!
Wow who could have seen this coming? Corporate social media doing evil things? I never would have thought.
I tried it for like a month. I dipped as soon as they capitulated to the demands of the Turkish government.
I personally only bridge my posts to it. If they starts really being shitty (like twitter) I'll disconnect it.
TBF I only bridge for the convenience of my followers. I do not like how this whole app/protocol is handled

Oh weird. It definitely was there before, just as shown in the screenshot in the OP.
It's suddenly back.... I just happened to go look again.
Snagged the images:



How bizarre.
Has it been deleted or something?
imagine trying to add a caption for this image.
Fuck AI
"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
