One big issue with the existing cross-posting feature is that it does not work AT ALL with text based posts, just links.
Some easily shared graphics would still be super useful.
I really think medium broad-topic instances are the way to go. Similar in scope to lemmy.film or lemdro.id
Important to note: linked crossposting does not currently work with discussion posts, just links.
The Germans have won it seems.
Nope. Totally unrelated. I assume this is the thread you're talking about: https://lemmy.world/post/1809693
I believe this is the paper that got everybody talking about it recently: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2307.01850.pdf
One theory that I've not seen mentioned here is that there's been a lot of work based around multiple LLMs in communication. Of these were used in the RL loop we could see similar degradatory effects as those that have recently been in the news with regards to image generation models.
Not useful for finding people to follow but you now can also populate your feed with Lemmy communities. Also check out a.gup.pu !
I think this is so disingenuous. There's such a huge difference between being actively tracked and monetized in ways that are explicitly hidden from you vs all of your posts being intrinsically public and cached. To act like the first is fine and the second is risky is just big tech propaganda.
All good. If I had any artistic talent myself I would have put something else together but alas. If anybody's got something cute and free hit me up!
