Now instead of a faceless notification destroying your account with no explanation, it will be a faceless notification destroying your account with no explanation AND destroy a bit more of the ecosystem.

TBH, the reply of “Dead internet theory” is starting to feel like a bot pattern matching on “bot talking to bot”.

Like we get it.

That’s what I’m struggling with. X is awful, Reddit is awful, tumblr is awful, and I can’t think of a 4th established platform that fills the nich. This is the closest, which is why I am here.

I got hit by a word filter too. Each individual word was SFW but the combination could be interpreted as hateful (even though it wasn’t in context). So they have some sort of intent-matching system that is poorly implemented, probably piping it through the cheapest haiku model they can access.

The vast majority of Americans have plenty of people to blame.

Someone want to link that one dude who deleted all their work via GitHub desktop “discard changes” button

Nothing would surprise me at this point, Reddit builds a platform that lets you get attached to your account & community and then takes it away without even having a human look at the ban. Total BS

Everytime I think about starting a technical blog I am reminded it will 1) be fed into the meat grinder and 2) people will assume it was a product of the meat grinder.

So for whatever value my technical expertise could provide the world - it won’t. Because AI exists. That’s the only reason.

But reddit rejects people for utter nonsense reasons. If you just use it enough you’ll eventually stumble into something that irks the wrong admin or gets caught by their word filter. So they “Reddit rejected” is really just a random sampling of power users. Of that set, the hateful degenerates are driven towards X imo.
