what AI tool do you mostly use Bard or ChatGPT in c/technology@beehaw.org

ChatGPT is my programming rubber ducky for general stuff

Reddit says accessibility upgrades for moderators are coming to its mobile apps soon in c/technology@beehaw.org

They've been saying mod tools have been coming since the first blackout years ago. It's fucking ground hogs day everytime mods get pissed

I'd also worry about people who have corporate shit on there. Anyone who uses this as a tool should probably delete their chats and change their password, even if you don't have anything proprietary or ground breaking in there just as a precaution

I imagine the frequency response curve is going to be a trash heap on these things. Mids? Who needs em?

Yea. I'm going to be honest, I disagree with this decision immensely. There just aren't enough posts and comments here alone to really keep my whole lemmy experience here.

The whole point of federation is to be able to branch out as I see it. Half of the communities I'm subbed to are on the places being banned, so it sorta breaks the whole point of federation to me at least. I get why mods are doing it and think it's definitely their right to do so, but as an end user, it reaaaally sucks and will likely make me make an account elsewhere as my primary.

There are a lot of assholes on the internet, and I get wanting to have a space free of that. As a trans woman of 10 years now, trust me, I have gotten harassment online and off it. For me at least, I personally err on the side of having more freedom to look into places even if that means dealing with a couple of assholes. The mods say that strangers don't walk in off the street and start trolling - from experience, I can say that is just not quite true. At some point, people really have to just roll with it and keep a positive attitude in the face of it. It's better to deal with assholes from time to time to go out and have fun rather than sit at home.

I worry that a space like this can stifle a good thing by wanting to be too thorough. Shit always slips thru cracks, and while I get that it can suck for some, heavy restriction just kills the whole thing. In some ways, it just feels like some of the decisions here are very kid-glovey. Like, at least in subs like asktrans or mtf or other parts on reddit where trolls loved to comgregate, downvotes were how the community itself self regulated trolls - we don't even have that option here. I'm not sure how I feel about such hands on moderation - it doesn't give good faith users a ton of freedom

They have the right to do so, but it probably shows I don't quite fit with the ethos of the instance.

I'm not a lawyer in the slightest, but wouldn't stuff like that be grounds for a mistrial?

Queue the "internet people are a vocal minority" saying. Unfortunately, it really is true. How anyone can pre-order after fo76 is absolutely bonkers to me

Not sure if this is the right community, but the narrowness of the default web page was driving me a little crazy. I still need to fix a few things (like vertically centering the votes) but I feel that this looks a lot better. If you have the Stylus browser add on, you should just be able to copy and paste this into a new style

what would Reddit need to do to get you to go back in c/technology@beehaw.org

[–] mustyOrange@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

That's exactly how I feel. Even just the way comments were structured was weird, let alone the idea of subreddits

Apparently the Reddit AMA with Steve Huffman went about as well as it could go off the rails. in c/technology@beehaw.org

[–] mustyOrange@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It seems people are landing all over the place. I'm seeing raddle.me, tild.es, here, and discord being the main options.

I honestly don't get why discord is getting looked at. It's a huge company that you don't really want to trust with stuff either, and it's not even a forum ffs
