Sounds like you need to develop your imagination more
SuperNovaStar 3 points a year ago
Yeah, I don't know how to make those so I just accept the alternate reality you are proposing despite knowing it's fictitious :/

I'm not trying to support AI but I'm pretty sure the water that is "lost" to data centers is due to evaporation, which would return it to the water cycle. I think the rest of the water use is "closed loop", so minimal losses.

I think in the long term AI is going to save the planet via mechanisms exactly like this; reducing the population level to something the planet can support not by culling existing humans but by preventing new humans from being born in the first place! This is the most gentle of all apocalypse, the one where humanity just packs it in and stops messing with the planet.

I started getting these ads on my Lemmy app (sync). Anyone got a reccomendation for another app that also does keyword blacklisting?

Voyager!

Tried voyager, doesn't seem to have keyword filtering/blacklisting... Maybe I need to be logged in for the option to show up?
brbposting 6 points a year ago

Options options!

Sync has ADS?!
How are you still tolerating ads?
recklessengagement 3 points a year ago
Momentum, I guess.
Side note, it's great that Lemmy has so many other choices. Any other platform you'd be stuck with the ads. But now that they've exceeded my threshold for tolerance, I can drop the whole app and still get all the features I want.
Not a lot of places left where you can do that.
somerandomperson 2 points a year ago
You can do that with the whole fediverse.

I use sync too; though I'm running it through proton VPN (largely due to my govs increasingly authoritarian stance on internet freedoms, but that's neither here nor there), which has built in ad and tracker blocking, so I don't see any of the ads in sync.
This is what it looks like behind an ad blocker:
Passerby6497 4 points a year ago
Switch to a better app like voyager. The sync dev isn't great (I admittedly have an axe to grind) and I thought I saw they were abandoning the project.
But either way, grab an app that isn't trying to monetize you like they do. And don't pay for the app, they will eventually rug pull it (they did it to me with the reddit app years ago)
javiwhite 2 points a year ago
Yeah I'm aware of syncs controversy; the app hasn't seen any updates in a year or so. But using an adblock to circumvent the ads isn't supporting the dev, and it works well enough for my needs. I definitely wouldn't pay for a premium account; feels very anti-fediverse in nature.
I did start to use voyager on my Linux phone, though it doesn't seem to connect to my home instance. Admittedly that's via the web app, so perhaps there's some issues with connectivity there rather than voyager in general; but that experience sort of solidified me on sync on my android. I setup a second account on db0 and it worked with voyager, but I'm generally pretty happy where I am.
Feddit.uk have setup a blorp frontend which I may just convert to a web app for use, but I just haven't got around to it.

Blorp dev here. We also have mobile apps for iOS and Android! I’d love for you to give Blorp a try, and I’m happy to fix any issues you encounter.

I switched from Sync to Boost and it's been a pretty good experience so far. I used to love Sync, but the developer has obviously given up support for the app. I paid for a year subscription, but when I got a new phone I couldn't sync my purchase, so I was still getting obnoxious ads. Posted in the community and reached out to the developer directly... and nothing. Cancelled my subscription and I'm never going back.
Randelung 1 point a year ago
I have an always on VPN to my pihole. Boost only has ads when I fuck something up and have to disable the VPN. Which is every few years, and the experience with the internet in general makes me so thankful for pihole.
Actually, I should donate a few bucks.

**Moderator Guidelines**
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

We are literally destroying our planet and the water ww drink to feed AIs, not to help us cure all diseases, educate our population, help us develop clean way to power our present and our future, but to wank to Louis Griffin. Literally something many of us have been able to do quite succesfully for many years without the assistance of AI.
