Thanks for the share! Appreciate actual, non-toxic discussion about LLM usage on Lemmy.

Plus, you know, being the absolute worst (or best, depending on how you see it) at storing every single piece of data about their users. And ruining YouTube completely, just so they're able to harvest more data from their users. And.. You know, making their money on selling that data to ad companies and shoveling ads on every site they're able to, and offering their users to pay a fee to avoid said ads, which are used by the advertising company who bought the data about the specific user, which was harvested by Google.

Oh, and turning Android into literal spyware, just to harvest even more data about everyone, so they can sell even more aggressively personal data about their users. And now trying to limit their Android userbase from being able to use apps without the literal spyware that they provide.

So there's that.. But yeah, they do have great marketing, funding a lot of side projects, and donate to charities enough so that their userbase remain gullible enough to think that they "are the best of the worst". Which isn't really a hard job given the competition with the current American tech market ghouls at the top, who use other strategies to gain attraction.

🚨🚨 BREAKING! 🚨🚨 Stranger on forum solves thousands of years long, unsolvable grudge that was the reason behind the many violent protests that used to be frequent on Lemmy and lead to mass deports, death and a lot of work on the local moderation.

Users from both sides now resorted to communicating with each other for the first time, and are teaming up to raise a monument in OP's honor, sources say.

Do you think that she works at an American Chinese food joint? She's an highly ranked politician, of course she knows English. Better than you and me both, probably.

There's so much ammunition to use, that reducing to bash him because of his appearance is just petty, childish behaviour which is easy to dismiss from his side.

Hey, me too! I ditched W10 for Linux Mint in Sept last year, so much to learn but it's been a blast. I've never experienced having such a smooth working PC.

Basically all posts here are downvoted every morning/evening when I check in. It seems like either a bot reaction or someone who's extremely dedicated to fuel their hate to the Perchance comm on Lemmy.

And as a OT comment related to the other comments; why did the owner decide to switch to Lemmy in the first place? Although I understand, and personally appreciate the choice, it certainly lost a lot of information and engagement. Especially since said owner seems to be this mysterious, unkown ninja that works in the shadows and magically summons code that is questioned by its userbase for months, if not years at this point (based of my own experience).

Factorio is still one of the games where I have the most hours put into Steam, and after the crack-like obsession finally wore off I haven't really looked at it since. I suppose the DLC could be fun, but I already went to space thanks to mods. Will always be a favorite for me!

I just stumbled upon this post in my hone feed and knew that I would probably be needing the answer myself some day and now I know. Thank you!

With today's filter bubble being the sole reason behind most opinions of your average person today, they're already active daily on FB, IG, Tik-Tok, and of course, let's not forget your dedicated Youtube viewer, who is easily pushed down a conspiracy rabbit hole.. The echo chamber is already in full effect.

Yes, LLM's are Yes-men who will butter you up and treat you like you're the MC about to save the world. And your average, doomscrolling adult will most likely not even know about prompting an LLM to challenge their believes. But any of those platforms are already pushing down content down the user's throats that is biased, false, and usually designed as rage bait to increase the emotional response (and thus making it basically impossible for the victim to be aware of the filter bubble, since they're the only rational people living in a crazy world).

AI is not the end-game dystopian bogeyman everyone jumps through loops to make it out to be. It can absolutely be problematic and are already is being used to stir up anger and spread misinformation. You know, like journalists (who writes articles specifically designed to spread fear.. Like this one), social media platforms, 'influencers', or politicians have done for years now.

We were already fucked before LLM's and datacenters was a thing. People seem so desperate to find something to blame.

Well, if it's any comfort I actually appreciate an extra layer of security. I have been a little suspicious of some generators myself and have been wondering if it's possible to add some kind of user data collection to a gen, it didn't seem impossible and your generator kind of confirms it. I'll be try it out.

Do yourself a favour and don't let silly little downvotes (which happens to all posts here on Perchance and doesn't matter at all on Lemmy) get to you. People will still read a post even if it's downvoted, the post won't disappear here, compared to Reddit. Take a look at other new posts in this community, almost all have been downvotes.

I can see where you're coming from. At this point I'm not interested in engaging with content that has a negative impact on my mental health, even if I support those views. There's some extent of irony in this behavior, but I'm just tired of being constantly bombarded with reminders of our sad world. I don't use typical social media, and every once in a while when I catch a whiff of a friend's Tiktok or Instagram feed, I'm completely blown away by how much content there is designed to trigger a negative, or often an angry reaction. This was a big reason for me to leave Reddit and I'm trying to avoid this as much as possible on Lemmy.

I'm still very new here and still trying to figure this whole fediverse thing out, I've only been here for about a month, give or take. Like some other user suggested were common for newbies to Lemmy, I chose the most active instance without really thinking about it, and always scroll through /All. During my short experience here, I have blocked so, so many communities and instances already. Blahaj is one of them, not because I disagree with the importance or need to stand up for LGTQ+ rights, but because I feel that the general content posted there is naturally based on a politically driven agenda, which again is all fine, but I browse this shit before bed to escape my already constant anxiety, and I'm here for memes and a good time. I'm not interested in content that is either dystopian doomerism, American circus politics, war reports, or what ever depressing reminders of our current speedrun to degrade human life, in basically all categories.

I get that people are actively frustrated, angry, in need to vent, or in need of other's to help them feel less alone, that they're not the only ones who think the world is losing their minds. This space is perfect for people to discuss those things, to find likeminded people and even challenge their believes from other's opinions. But that's not what I'm looking for. I could just make it easy for myself and sub to the lighthearted communities that fits to my need and just scroll through that instead, but I enjoy the random posts from communities I wouldn't find unless I was scrolling through /All, like this post for example.

Instead, I just block everything that has a negative reaction that makes me chose to engage in that content from my side. Like another news article about Musk posting something dumb on Twitter once again, for example. If I read the title and want to click the post to read more, I stop to ask myself if feel that if the reason to want to read more stems from anger or frustration, if it does I try to move on. Not because I feel that the topic shouldn't be discussed or that it shouldn't have an angry reaction, but because it's fucking everywhere already and I'm not trying to feed my depression further. Call it an ostrich behaviour, but it makes my experience a little better.
