Yeah with the images now you can just ask a computer to make any image so I feel like the novelty's gone, so why not just try to draw it yourself?

Even an amateur sketch sparks more joy, more connection, and tells me more about your passion than the most detailed most smoothest most super duper HDR style generated image.

In fact I would literally prefer a blank box with some plain alt text describing the image you would have generated. That way I can at least see what you the person were trying to communicate rather than what was statistically inserted based on association, temperature, and whatever advertising partners won the automated micro-bid for placement in the image.

I push a lot of things, but thanks I'll check it out

The karma farming still doesn't make sense to me. Like how much money can there honestly be in it? Unless you're ideological, I don't see the point.

Remember when we used to write "redit" after a web search to ensure we got some authentic conversation related to the query?

The fediverse will never have SEO like that, but I am gradually finding increasingly niche topics discussed here, or else I start a discussion with them.

I'm really happy you're unaffected, and curious about your work and social groups that you've managed to avoid its negative impacts, but for a lot of us it's a daily barrage.

There is a third way, and that's where my money's going. Solidarity with all game devs, including artists

Yah if you have argue that your lies were undermined in order to prove "damages" (dubious) then I feel like you have to buy everyone lunch for wasting their time.

Really it's free advertising. Their shitty response to the leaks is doing the biggest damage imo. Like what a bunch of fucking chuds of the most unchill demeanour.

Like I want to buy a game glorifying a life of total criminal freedom from a bunch of nerds who whine over some leaked mp5s. Rofl gtfo guys

We only get their best. The ones who stay with Discord we don't want

Maybe Discord will build them some premium level corpo only API endpoints so this can be automated ✨ /s

Discord is trash, but they have no legal reason to comply with this request unless they just want to.

Can't speak for the other person, but I just left. Told my old groups I couldn't stand Discord. Sometimes you don't need an alternative idk I just chat with deferent people on different programs now.

My irl friends think I'm a weirdo but I'm at peace, and they know how to reach me.
