Thanks the thing, when internet folks get riled up we can have a serious impact. Redditors have always been great at this – Restore the Fourth, the SOPA/PIPA protests in 2011 – and Lemmy and kbin can be a great vehicle.

Thanks, totally agreed … we learn by doing!

They certainly fucked up, but it might well be OpenAI’s post too.

@nev Thanks!

@MyOpinion Totally agree, there’s some discussion at the end of the article on the need to improve moderation tools. Specifically for kbin and lemmy, I also talked about this in the Invest in moderation tools section of Don’t tell people “it’s easy”

@fediverse @fediverse @thenexusofprivacy

I know it’s on their list, not sure where it’ll get prioritized. I shared a link to kbinMeta with beehaw.org’s list of needed moderation functionality, which applies to kbin as well, but so far the only comment is “jesus christ, here we go again with all this blocking bullshit”. 🤣

Exactly!!!

I just talked with the person who’s running https://kilioa.org/ and it isn’t ready for a major influx of users, please take it off the list for now!

Agreed all around … although I’d add that the probability that a critical mass of users will leave is quite low in the short term.
