Could always hire an impersonator who does a good impression of said politician. Wouldn’t have to worry about restrictions then.
You and I can agree there! I shoulda looked a bit longer. I saw “leftist piracy-friendly instance” and jumped on ship without thinking about the Ai stuff until I was already on-board. That’s on me. I thought this would be more environmentally concerned leftism than… well, not that.
No clue where you’re getting the whole “I intend to turn this instance from pro-AI into something it is not” stuff from. Didja see the comment where I asked for an instance to jump ship to? I’m trying to leave, pal.
Definitely agree, would be intellectually bankrupt to compare AI to Nazis. Glad I compared AI to the “Nazi Bar” problem instead of comparing AI to Nazis.
And you’re right! AI folks should be able to enjoy their communities. Other folks can simply block them every time they show up over and over again exponentially.
Hell, I wouldn’t do any good crowding this community if I’m not hep to AI stuff. If you have any good recommendations for Lemmy instances that align with dbzer0s views minus AI, let me know! I’d be happy to hear any suggestions.
I love dbzer0 because it’s a pro-piracy, leftist instance with great moderation and a sizable userbase. I just sort of try my best to ignore the whole AI thing, not my cup of tea with the whole power consumption and art theft stuff. I’m all for “fuck copyright” when it comes to big corporations but I become a bit of a hypocrite when it comes to independent creators’ works being used to train AI models without their permission. I dunno, all of this has been said before by a thousand other people, you get the gist.
The issue I have is similar to the Nazi bar problem; If you have an AI-friendly community, you have an AI community. You can keep ignoring and blocking AI-posting users as they show up, but it’s easier to generate an image than to assemble one manually, so they keep showing up more and more. It becomes nigh impossible to “just ignore AI posts.” It’s part of why people get so hostile towards them, if people don’t react negatively to AI posts when they see them, people will post more and more of them.
Of course, harassment and bullying is unjustifiable. It’s the internet; some folks are gonna take things too far. Makes me sad to see the effect being separated by screens can produce.
To summarize, I’m all for pro-AI users to have a space to exist (y’know, like, this instance. maybe I should start searching for a different instance? Like, dbzer0 sans AI?), but it is easier said than done to just “ignore AI” without more of it showing up.
Lifehack!! Add before:2026 to the end of any YouTube search and it will no longer show you “also recommended for you” or “people also watched” bullshit. Just the search results you should have been shown in the first place will remain.
Oh right, shit
I forgot that Amazon Prime was more than content streaming
Uhhhhh
Replace Amazon Prime with patience and foresight
Could always pick up piracy. Hard to beat a 100% off coupon.
Simply pick up uBlock Origin and browse some community-vetted streaming sites on FMHY. (Short for Free Media Heck Yeah, a site that showcases community-vetted sites.)
That’s just streaming, no downloading. Simply find streams of whatever shows you’re invested in and binge as usual!
I’ve even gone as far as taking old laptops of mine and having them full screen these sites on startup. Then, I simply hook the laptop up to my TV via HDMI, plug in a Bluetooth keyboard, and binge away!

Having sex at a funeral is usually seen as disrespectful.
It still does if you hover over it iirc
my biggest question is “why is the protagonist an anthropomorphic die?”
