Anything new with beehaw and the lemmyverse? Are we still changing platforms? Things seem a lot more quiet now. Is that really a bad thing though? How are you?
Mostly same for me. The only thing I still use reddit for, are those weirdly specific Google searches when I need to troubleshoot a tech or game issue. Append “reddit” to almost any of your web searches and the results are usually much more helpful than what you get on official forums (especially the official Microsoft support page, fuck that :c) or the crap that Google throws on the first results page.
Beehaw definitely reminds me of the couple of vBulletin forums I used to post on back in the day. Smaller scale, mild pace, and I start to recognize people after sticking around a while. Much more of a community feel. I really missed that.
Seems to have a lot more bots since the drama than I ever remember noticing before. I know historically there’s been a lot of accusations over the years of reddit users being bots based what position they’re taking in an argument so I wanna clarify I don’t mean it like that, I mean it in the sense of GPT-style errors in the flow of conversation. OP asks how to do something, commenter responds “I agree” before answering the question. That kinda thing.
I’ve recently logged into Reddit, and noticed I’ve been banned from another sub I haven’t participated in over 6 months… so I’d say it’s doing as before, with retroactive moderation in full blast.
Hello friend from Beehaw. As a kbinaught/Kbinite (not sure what term we settled on) things seem to be going good I have noticed recently sh.itjust.works has been all about ai images of sailor moon and an anime instance was one of the latest to get defederated from ml.
Please don’t get me started about the Sailor Moon thing 🙄
I’m the owner of that community and it’s been getting a bit tiresome to see nothing but Sailor Moon stuff come by. I’m not saying anything about it though and hope people will get bored with it and it’ll blow over. In then end it is a harmless phase and everyone is having fun, I don’t want to ruin it for others.
But I’m looking forward to the day that it’ll be as welcome as another beans post :)
Wait, what’s this about fash (I take it you mean fascist?) instance? Am I missing something here?
I stick to my communities so I’m not the most well-informed Lemmy.
If I remember right they were defederated for being overall toxic and there were a number of nazi-esque people on that instance specifically. I may be totally misremembering though.
