I don’t see why they would use AI instead of picking an appropriate image or making something quick in Gimp or paint, it just makes me not want to be part of those communities.

    It saddens me to learn that furries and anarchists are pro-AI… :(

    That’s not what I said.

    I said on fediverse the big instances/communities for those topics are (or at least tend to be, I don’t have my finger on either’s pulse and blocked most long ago) run by people obsessed with AI and very eager to defend it.

    That doesn’t mean every user interested in one or both topics are the same, I said the opposite:

    If you wanted to start communities about either topic and wanted to ban ai slop while moderating in good faith, there’s likely a demand for that.

    And while your account is on piefed, this post is on .world, especially being new it’s common for new people to not notice when they’ve jumped to a community hosted on another instance.

    To my knowledge every instance defaults to showing a feed from all federated instances, you’d need to select “local” on your homepage to only see content from your instance.

      Db0 certainly is, but I’m not sure which pro-AI furry instance you’re thinking of.

      Don’t worry, I don’t think all furries or anarchists are pro-AI, I meant that it saddens me to see people part of the community be pro-AI

      Most furries I know are artists, and most anarchists I know are pro-humans, for example.

      And true, I did not really check which instance each community was in, but I did know it was possible to browse communities of other instances, I chose piefed.zip because it did not seem to block (or “defederalize” I think some say?) other instances, I want to be able to choose myself what I block

      I’ll probably start blocking those that I see have AI icons
