Mastodon really runs on direct post engagement, especially boosts, to make the whole thing work without an algorithm
It’s very similar to tumblr in that a boost is supposed to function like a like/upvote to spread content, since no automated algorithm is going to suggest that post for you.
But I’m sure people are also trying to grow their networks quick, since it’s sort of a hollow experience without it
This is how Mickey Mouse comes into creation
Is there really too many comments on a lemmy post for you to see all comments, including “controversial”?
If I had to sort this feature request it would be far at the bottom of the list, at least until more users are commenting.
If you don’t choose to believe in it, it can’t hurt you. That’s verified fact
Salix is right that it alludes to the Dead Internet Theory.
I don’t actually subscribe to the full theory that the internet is already dead and we only talk to bots, but I do think bot activity may become advanced and pervasive enough to create a “Dead Internet” like scenario (or at least fundamentally alter platforms away from what we currently know as the internet experience)
These companies not being able to handle bot attacks without hamstringing major parts of their platforms is a canary in the coal mine for the Dead Internet.
Or maybe load billions more in debt onto a company that was just barely treading water

A lot of people left due to it not being morally sound for them to support Musk and his actions.
But now there are paywalled features that are ruining the functional experience of Twitter. You can’t look at the site for more than half an hour before getting restricted on a free account
Plus Mastodon has had time to polish instances, apps and gain a userbase so it is a little easier to transition
Well well well. What a pointless exercise in obstinance
The three plaintiffs allege that when prompted, ChatGPT will produce a summary of their works. They claim this is copyright infringement, as they did not consent to their books being fed to ChatGPT.
How can they have a case? How many sites, interviews, social media posts have content that goes over summaries of their books?
Silverman herself has probably gone over the book context in enough posts and press releases/interviews to give ChatGPT all the context it needs.
It always reminded me of the random six-letter brands on Amazon.

If only paid subscribers could get more than 25 uses of GPT-4 every 3 hours…
I think the content level has gotten better even in the past few days.
I predict at ~200,000 users, there will be a good enough flow of posts and comments that it won’t feel as empty compared to Reddit.
They must have changed their paywall behavior, I just went and was able to see every image I clicked on.
The login popup appears after a few pages but you can just exit out and keep viewing. Google should be able to index the pages without access issues
Maybe that previous aggressive login screen killed their SEO before, I see much less pinterest images than I used to years ago
Is ensuring an information monopoly for an unethical, profit-above-else driven corporation making the world better?
Exactly what someone who wrote their book with AI would say…
