  • You might be right, I definitely see your point. ActivityPub adds a whole new layer to this too. In the end though, isn’t the content we post no different than anything else published on the Internet? I guess it’s important to note that technically nothing public can be 100% prevented from being used in unwanted ways. However, there might be other ways (legally, socially, etc.) we could discourage it.

    Regardless, I’d love to get a better sense of how much this matters to us here on Lemmy—or if it should even matter in the first place











  • We can’t force people to join, but we can emphasize the negatives of Reddit and the ways Lemmy solves those. Things like:

    • Lemmy does not collect personal data and share it with third parties like Reddit does
    • Lemmy does not violate your privacy with tracking or ads like Reddit does
    • Lemmy’s code and algorithms can be viewed and reviewed by anyone at any time as-is, unlike Reddit
    • Lemmy is 100% self-funded and moderated by its own users across the world. Reddit and your data is governed by a single money-driven corporation with controversial leadership

    People that value those things are the ones that will consider moving over. You might say that you’ve read over Reddit’s terms and conditions, and then present the Lemmy community as a private and safe alternative if anyone wishes to join?



  • Talking to a text-to-image model is kinda like meeting someone from a different generation and culture that only half knows your language. You have to spend time with them to be able to communicate with them better and understand the “generational and cultural differences” so to speak.

    Try checking out PromptHero or Civit.ai to see what prompts people are using to generate certain things.

    Also, most text-to-image models are not made to be conversational and will work better if your prompts are similar to what you’d type in when searching for a photo on Google Images. For example, instead of a command like “Generate a photo for me of a…”, do “Disposable camera portrait photo, from the side, backlight…”
