Honestly, it's because it went in early days.
When ML generated art was a novelty, and people hadn't had a chance to sit down and go "wait, actually, no".
And it's an absolute arsepain to replace, because you'll get 1001 prompt engineers defending slop.
feddit.uk banned generative AI content to make this process easier, and still needs to sweep through and commission new art for a few communities.
Yeah, maybey it would be a good idea to have a new community vote. Can I just start that or do I have to ask the mods or something? I am pretty new to Lemmy, so I am not really shure how this works.
Lemmy honestly tends to run on the ideas of "be the change you want to see in the world" and "well volunteered".
Stick a post up, see if people are interested.
You could message the mods. While they don't seem to have posted for a while, there are mod actions happening still.
And if you don't hear anything back, put it as a suggestion to the admins.
It's worth noting that sometimes people mod with a different alt than they use for commenting. Just because you don't see them participating, doesn't mean they aren't.
