I agree, I really don’t think the concerns about “not being able to tell what’s real” will be a major issue (at least to those who care about knowing what’s real). Social media has been full of human-made slop for years and if someone is getting their sense of reality from social media posts, then that is the problem and AI isn’t going to dramatically change that.
I have a feeling if any of these video generators tried to make a “clip” longer than a couple of seconds they would rapidly become a lot less “real looking”
A Fedi instance requires a time commitment, there are some good suggestions in here but I recommend some alternative frontends.
Potentially unpopular protip: I’ve blocked most of the “prolific” posters. My entire feed was becoming repurposed memes from 2015.
I’m happy there are people out there dedicating time to keeping Lemmy “active” but that is not how I want to live my life.
I love being able to have the small-forum feeling of my home instance but also feeling connected to communities elsewhere.
TikTok → Reddit → Lemmy → …grass?
That is correct and echoes what I said
The Remote Watch Pass is only needed if neither you nor the server owner have a Plex pass: https://support.plex.tv/articles/requirements-for-remote-playback-of-personal-media/
When using an affected platform to stream personal video content remotely from a Plex Media Server, then one of the following needs to be true:
- The admin account for the Plex Media Server has an active Plex Pass (which also allows remote playback for any other user streaming from that server)
- Your account has an active Plex Pass
- Your account has an active Remote Watch Pass
The remote playback restrictions do not apply to streaming music content to Plexamp or photos to our Plex Photos app.
Back in the day Nike was fashion-non-grata due to their well known child labor practices. The fact that they reinvented the brand to the degree that they actually became aligned with punk/skater culture still blows my mind. Advertising is a powerful tool.
People are talking about privacy but the big reason is that it gives you, the owner, control over everything quickly without ads or other uneeded stuff. We are so used to apps being optomized for revenue and not being interoperable with other services that it’s easy to forget the single biggest advantage of computers which is that programs and apps can work together quickly and quietly and in the background. Companies provide products, self-hosting provides tools.
A majority of registered voters in the US have no party affiliation actually.
The function of accounts like the one you are replying to is to encourage cynicism and inaction among otherwise anti-fascist people.
Failing that, they will try to exhaust you with “debate”.

I did not realize you were OP (or even had a Lemmy account) 😂
Mastodon has more of a flat structure and is designed to be more conversational which is why I think it hasn’t caught on amongst celebrities and the pundit class. It’s great for conversation but only so-so at self promotion.
@[email protected]’s blog is one of my favorites. He really understand the social aspect to a lot of modern technology.
I think the most effective reply is highlighting their methodology and moving on, rather than allowing yourself to be bogged down in rebuttals. You can never convince them because they are not “debating” earnestly, and the audience they are performing for isn’t interested in following a debate and will dismiss both sides.
Agree completely, I also just feel it’s important to highlight that style of inauthentic behavior.
What are you accomplishing, right here, right now, with this comment?

Tinder started as a “hook-up” app, if they went back to that kind of marketing I would not find the company quite so reprehensible.
