Second largest Lemmy instance preemptively un-friends Facebook
  • Damn it, didnt even get a notice about this comment. It uses GANs, similar but not the same as the LLMs used by chatgpt trained on a large set of photos (I think it was trained on the ffhq set) to generate new faces. See youtube for cool videos that transition between faces.

  • What's something you used to do/see/say but don't anymore because you don't feel it's right?
  • Cringe seem to have become popular to describe all kinds of annoying, uncomfortable, or awkward things lately. Maybe use that instead since the other two uses of gay were pretty well established when people started using it as the third definition.

  • Why Defederating from Facebook/Meta is So Important
  • This one is easy. I remember the 90s when microsoft pretended to play nice with everyone while they simultaneously did their damndest to destroy any competitor by their embrace and extend tactic. I also remember when AOL opened up their walled garden and the amount of garbage that flooded every usenet group. Im aware that the redditpocalypse probably had the same effect on lemmy but I still support defederation.

  • how to block meta from mastodon
  • Another reason to avoid it is that Jack Dorsey supports known anti-vaxxer and general conspiracy kook Robert F Kennedy Jr. Not the kind of people I'd want to run my social network.

  • As Twitter flounders, Mastodon refreshes its official app for Android users
  • There's the webapp wefwef.app that seem very popular. I'm currently using Connect for Lemmy and it seems to work pretty well. I found a list of clients somewhere that I was planning to go through but that browser tab seems to have been eaten by the Wumpus (not the discord one).
