And? Blatant lies are not exclusive to AI texts. Every right wing media is full of blatant lies, yet are written by humans (for now).
The problem is, if you properly prompt the AI, you get exactly what you want. Prompt it a hundred times, and you get a hundred different texts, posted to a hundred different social media channels, generating hype. How in earth will you be able to detect this?
I’m genuinely curious. Is it feasible that they maintain their own chromium forks, or will the work become too much if Google keeps inserting more and more crap into it?
Yeah, FB was killed by the younger people abandoning it for other SM. Twitter was killed by Musk. Reddit was killed by Spez.
And by “killed”, I mean “lost some users and content quality”. They still have millions of active users.
And my personal feed on Reddit is pretty much unchanged. Very few niche subreddits went into an extended blackout, so I still got all my content. And since I use the mobile website (FF+uBlock), the API change didn’t affect me that much. But I hope more communities from Reddit will move over here, especially the non-tech ones.
Overall, maybe. But in my niche subs not.
Sadly, no. Just not enough content on Lemmy, yet.
As somebody who just uses the mobile site on Firefox, I didn’t really feel affected by the API changes (besides the fact that Reddit once again showed their ugly face). All the subs I care about feel unchanged.
Yes. I see a lot of comments on Reddit like “I tried Lemmy, but you have to sign up for every instance”, because it’s so opaque how you can subscribe to different instances. Personally, I copy the “handle”, add it to my URL manually, then subscribe. But this is nothing any mainstream user would do.
I like it! Main issue for me is that there is not enough content on my hobbies, and “all” content is mostly filled with reddit-this and lemmy-that (or now threads) stuff, which is annoying because I don’t want to talk more about the platform than actually using it. But I hope this will change with some time.
I use only the browser, UX and UI is pretty straight forward, but subscribing to communities of other instances is really weird. I need to copy the “handle” (i.e. !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml), and add it manually to my instance domain (i.e. lemmy.world/c/lemmy_support@lemmy.ml), and then I subscribe to it. I don’t know if there are other ways (besides finding new communities via “all”).
I’m not into the technicals of lemmy or the fediverse, but I guess this is not easily solvable, as an instance doesn’t know that I am the user of another instance.
Thing is, if this takes off and websites adopt it, FF will be forced to integrate it aswell. I’d be fine with some websites not working in FF, but my mother will call me and say “the internet is broken”. I guess Mozilla doesn’t want and/or cannot afford that.
