Article summarized by AI below
and this:
The article argues that artificial intelligence (AI) is not a threat to humanity
is a rather funny juxtaposition of statements. Of course, an evil AI that was a threat to humanity would summarize the article that way!
Yup, that seems to coincide with what I noticed. Some instances have few thumbnails, some have a few more, and others seem to have quite a bit of them. It's odd considering they're all running the same software and version.
I'll be interested in hearing what you find out, if anything.
Hahah, that's awesome. And probably the people who wanted things to stay as normal will begin to get annoyed at all the wolves being posted and maybe go somewhere else.
It's coming. You said that 'it's been fixed in a recent release', but no, it's been fixed in latest version they're working on right now that hasn't been released yet. There is a release candidate being tested, but it has a few bugs still so there will be at least one more release candidate that has to be tested for a bit before being released.
And now, five days later, over three thousand.
I'm a bit skeptical of 23k real new accounts in the last hour. If true, it's quite something. But, it could be bots, it could be some bug inflating the numbers, it could be somebody taking advantage of the account creation bug someone mentioned earlier.
We'll see.
User migration as well as community migration in case of instances going into a black hole would indeed be useful features.
Use the search function in your instance, and you'll likely have to click the 'search' button twice to bring it in. Put the original URL from the developer's instance in the search, like this:
https://lemmit.online/c/IdiotsInCars
Then you should get a link for it.
You get the 404 because your instance doesn't know about that community yet. It has to be made aware, and then connected to it via you doing the search.
There is no such thing as already the same community on another instance on current Lemmy.
Yup, I know. Not what I was asking, though. I was asking if the posts would go to an already established community somewhere on Lemmy, and the answer is 'no', instead they go to a new community on the developer's instance.
As of now all Lemmy instances can have e.g. a /c/cooking community, and they are all guns be individual communities.
Yup, I'm aware.
I kinda get what you're saying, but not really. Why would adding more content such as this lead to an instance wanting to defederate from that instance? There's no users there to troll, spam, or break the rules. It just adds posts.
Looks great so far. I like how the posts that are pulled over have both the link to the content from the original Reddit post as well as a link to the Reddit post itself.
Yes.
This isn't news, it's propaganda, and is misleading to say the least. And the person that posted it is new to Lemmy with a 5 day old account. Probably just a troll.
