I know, and maybe it will, my faith is just very low.

Customer support is annoying or whatever but this is horrifying. Several people will die because of this.

I think people speaking on these subjects should genuinely come together to host their content on a Peertube instance and broadcast it to their Youtube audience, because this is a pretty strong use case. To be able to speak freely about these matters and inform people is pretty serious.

This was very interesting! While I don’t fully understand everything, based on what I can, I’m partial to the second one. If the the instance disappears, I doubt the hoster wants that stuff up anyway. It makes it easier on everyone, and the replies seem (?) to stay up as well. A win-win. Either way it goes, I can only be thankful to the engineers working so hard to make this a reality. 🙏

Thank you, this makes sense. Is there any hope for Mastodon and other services to achieve a similar level of parity without eating up a ton of space? I feel like it is a big hurdle for Fedi, but I understand these things take time and a ton of work.

Ehhh nah. As someone who used character.ai before there are many horrible bots that get cleared and the bots have been impossible to have sex with unless you get really creative. The most horrendous ones get removed quite a bit and were consistently reposted. I’m not here to shield a big company or anything, but the “no sex” thing was a huge thing in the community and they always fought with the devs about it.

They’re probably trying to hide behind the veil of more normal bots now, but I struggle to imagine how they’d get it to do sexual acts, when some lightly violent RPs I tried to do got censored. It’s pretty difficult, and got worse over time. Idk though, I stopped using it a while ago.
