We like to think that what we are doing is the only valid way of doing things, specially when we are on the bleeding edge, and we forget that there’s a whole world of people and possibilities (and a history before ourselves) for whom our one solution is not the holy grail for. Not every production environment or homelab is centered around containerization. Yes, it is cool and useful, but it doesn’t exhaust every use case. Some people just don’t use containers and if your app is exclusively available that way, then it’s extra work to use it, or it just won’t even be considered at all.

An app that expects to be widely distributed and used but is Docker exclusive failed before even starting.

Whether you were in fact acting one way or the other is irrelevant. You’re still complaining to the tenants of one building that you got kicked out of another, entirely unrelated, building down the same street. And, judging by your overall attitude and demeanor all over this thread, I’m inclined to think that whatever reason that mod had to remove the comment, you don’t deserve any consideration. But still, it happened in a building where we have no say or power of interdiction. So still, I see no reason to care about your butthurt whining.

Do you ask to speak with the manager when the bartender kicks you out of the bar for being a whiny little shit that’s disturbing other customers?

Same deal. If the owner doesn’t want you in the premises you have no recourse. This is not a public place. You have no rights here. Coming to .world to complain about what a .ml mod did is like complaining about the bartender with the patrons of the Wendy’s next door. Sir, we don’t care. This is a Wendy’s and you’re yelling at the customers.

Yay, free speech at its finest. You having a right to say something doesn’t exonerate you from the consequences of said thing, nor does it protect you from other’s opinions about what you said. You’re butthurt, noted. Why should we care?

I’m not. Lemmy is flooded with AI communities, I can’t keep up with blocking all of them.

I just down vote all genAI images out of habit.

I’m not engaging anymore, you don’t want to learn, you’re just constructing weird gotchas for outrage.

Any early retiree is most likely a billionaire, so by definition they weren’t even contributing that much to begin with, probably just hoarding generational riches.

It’s an unfair comparison. A pensioner is someone that by definition already contributed the most they could to the economy. As experience has it, plenty of pensioners continue to work even after retirement.

We have seen experiments with ubi and they almost unanimously conclude that it’s a net positive, people tend to find work that both they actually want to work in and have the most skill on. It improves work conditions overall as well. Instead of settling for worse conditions or unfit positions.

Happy people are more efficient and productive. That’s a no brainer.

You’ll find that, overall, it’s actually the opposite. Healthy people who have all of their basic needs covered feel a big incentive to do productive and valuable work. Sure, there will be the freeloader here and there. But in general, people want to do cool things, even boring or simple things, as long as they feel they are contributing to something good.

That’s what boosts are for. You can see what others boost on their profile as a sort of repost. The like, is not a like, it’s there for feature parity with Xitter. But every app and instance calls it something different, but generally it’s a favorite button. So you have, boost, favorite, and bookmark. Boost are intended to be seen by others, favorites are for the original poster, and bookmarks are private for yourself. I’ve read that quote boosts are coming, but I’m not a fan of the feature. Find it to be really toxic. But we’ll see how it pans out when the feature is implemented.

Have you ever read a single history book? Humans are not very creative. All traditions are copying the tribe next door’s tradition with a little twist. That’s just how culture works.

They have the stigma of overflowing the content and distracting from the human, let’s have a conversation, part to focus mostly on the promotion and algorithmic sorting and advertisement part. The most egregious example being the hash walls. Tweets were the actual content is a short sentence followed by a gigantic string of hashtags in the hopes this will get more exposition. The purposes of a tag is that you want to be found by people who don’t follow you, abuse of it screams attention-seeking.

112 images out of 325,000 images scanned over two days, is about 0,03% So we are doing pretty well. With more moderation tools we could continue to knock out those sigmas.

They’re using Generative AI to create photo realistic renditions now, and causing everyone who finds out about it to have a moral crisis.

I can’t seem to find the source for the report about it right now, but there’s literal child porn being posted to Instagram. We don’t see this kind of alarmist reports about it because it is not something new, foreign and flashy for the general public. All internet platforms are susceptible to this kind of misuse. The question is what moderation tools and strategies are in place to deal with that. Then there’s stuff like on TOR where CSAM was used as a basis to discredit the use of the whole technology then it turned out that the biggest repository was an FBI honey pot operation.
