Nah, there’s always going to be bots in any public network, it’s normal, should be fought and all but there’s always adversarial individuals, we definitely should find who’s this Nicole person and get them to stop this crap, but you’d be surprised how NORMAL it is to have anything on the public internet under constant, 24/7 attack
Wrong use case, the expected one is friends and family watching stuff on your Jellyfin server from different homes, potentially through mobile, all with dynamic IPs
Heh, saw it already in some places 🏴☠️ so Streisand effect is in full force, good!
Which alternatives would you suggest?
The smart thing to do following this announcement would be to replicate it locally and use that from then on, they gave all the info on how to do it after all
I think many of them already do, i know Iocaine uses Markov chain text generation to spit out nonsense to poison the LLMs, do check it, at the bottom of the project page it links to others
By now i’ve seen like 6 or 7 projects on either trapping or outright poison content for LLM bots, and yesterday i saw this one which outright modifies the HTML of your page making it harder to steal and instead replaces it with a random prompt, someone asks it to summarize a blogpost and instead the thing starts talking about poodles or something, while normal browser users notice nothing
Missing: instant preview. If the implementation is just syncing a file, then that works, otherwise it’s the same thing
Since you mentioned it days ago I’ve been thinking it, would i be OK with those if the sound was normalized? Been actually checking it, normalizing audio on clips and seeing if i am now OK with those. And the answer continues to be a no. Why? Because IT’S AN AD. It’s an ad for the enshittified, cancerous social media platform it came from. Put creator watermarks in the video itself like so many already do, then chop off those COMPLETELY unnecessary ads for tikitocs or Zuckergram, and we’ll be better off and missing nothing.
Bluesky is by definition one of the things mentioned by the OP, they’re a commercial site, backed by venture capital, which recently received a round of financing on the order of 15 million by a freaking blockchain company, and i remember recently hearing they just plain don’t have a path to profit so it’s the same story as all the others. They ARE going to enshittify sooner or later. Here’s Cory Doctorow on this.
I can think of one: it’s FUCKING annoying, I’d be quite fine with the creator watermark in the video itself (and many do so), but that extra tacked-on logo clip, usually at 2-3 times the volume of the clip itself, is EXTREMELY annoying, i understand what you say but this is also a legitimate reason
36%
On one hand i love to see people fleeing Twitter, on another i think it foolish to move to another corporate site that eventually WILL enshittify. Here’s Cory Doctorow on why he won’t join Bsky or Threads
Enshittification Stage 1 is ALWAYS sweet, but eventually ends
Like OpenAI?
Person uninformed about these things here with an uninformed question: What are the chances that the Mozilla Foundation itself can be forked like the code can be?
I fully understand the argument and kinda agree. That said, here’s why i still use the Telegram self-chat just like OP, you can suggest a note-taking app replacement if you think:
Gimme a note taking app that has all these, that is not a big program needing lots of resources to run all the time, and that i can self-host for the server part (or E2EE P2P like Syncthing) and we’re cooking!
Since i use the self-chat on Telegram a lot i’ve wished for exactly the same thing in the past as i’m planning on leaving the service, so far haven’t found a right fit yet
This is specially annoying when troubleshooting, “please give me the error message you’re getting” and they reply with a screenshot of it i cannot copy/paste
