@subnetter @anemone @xianc78 @sun not sure why sexism needed to be a part of it :gutkato_scivola:

@anemone @xianc78 @sun its neat in theory but it has the same terrible UX that all decentraslop has and makes no attempt to fix any of it (like, again, all decentralsop doesn't.)
i think retroshare and toxx were the only ones who at least made the attempt. radicle seems fine that this is utterly useless for people that have to interact with the public.

@sun @xianc78 radicle.iceworks.cc has been around for half a year or more. not a large fan, UX is awful.
probably an article in there somewhere about mission drift but i don't think i'm the one to write it. being caustically centrist is apparently an imperative :neocat_sad:

this is, largely, why i took so goddamn long to ever make a codeberg account at all.

@sun @WandererUber that's the kind of shit i'd write but i'm also not part of the pipelines that receive it.
the AI music is passable these days. at least in english. the french ones still vocal fry a lot.

@sun i think if the models were actually what were being sold people would have to just shrug. "yep here's an infinite supply of goon fuel delivered directly to the dopamines."
some of the romancesloppers are so bad they forget to delete the prompts in the middle of the manuscript. they aren't even proofreading. it just goes from "i was gonna do my work but the dog man made me super wet and horny i can't believe it" in to "great! now lets include a montage of the hot dog man working out. certainly let's add that scene now! ..."

@sun i'm pretty sure one of the books i did the VA work on was slop. it used words like "latinx" and also didn't even use the tones consistently.

coinbros in the original day were like we're gonna route around the bank!
then they found out the bank owns the state and everything else; neither are historically keen on being replaced peacefully.
woops.

@sun i'm glad some people can find ways to enjoy driving around in circles. seemed like a weird waste of time to me :blobcatupsidedown:

the funny tell its not about RMS is that the discourse "sent from my iphone" isn't to carry on the work without him but to specifically make your products more easily exploitable by the exact people RMS tried to protect you from.
the amount of people going "maybe the OSLv3 is good, actually" is basically none
