That’s only beehaw tho, it’s quite an unique community, it’s not representative of the “average” lemmy server.

I know of beehaw defederating from a lot of instances, that doesn’t make them isolated tho, there are still a lot of instances they’re federated with.

Servers are not isolated from each other, people participate in communities regardless of the server they have their account on, that’s how the federation works.

Tho if by “server” you actually mean “community” then yes, each community can have its own “culture” like different subs on reddit did.

I hate how lemmy users are like Redditors and downvote any information contrary to what they want to see

I was thinking the same. There’s one person being honest about why they use Twitter - in a thread asking about why it’s still used - and the only thing people can do here is downvoting him? It’s sad.

Google does not own the internet, it does not own our creative works, it does not own our expressions of our personhood, pictures of our families and children, or anything else simply because we share it online

If it’s something personal don’t share it online?

True but donations help, it’s the best way to support this kind of projects IMO, doesn’t cover admins time and the soul they pour into it but at least the server costs.

Yeah, this new thing will be botted to hell lol.

I agree, if it wasn’t Musk there wouldn’t be so much hate most probably, starlink is objectively good for all the people living in rural zones (in some cases just outside of big cities) where internet doesn’t arrive because other companies don’t want to spend the money for it.

Reusing the content you scraped, if copyright protected, is not.

Edit: unless you get the authorization of the original authors but OpenAI didn’t even asked, that’s why it’s a crime.

Copyright, this is not the first time they’re sued for it apparently (violating copyright is a crime).

I’m not against artificial intelligence, it could be a very valuable tool, but that’s nowhere near a valid reason to break laws as OpenAI has done, that’s why I too hope authors win.
