I think alot of users also moved to dbzer0 due to a certain Adobe software community moving there from reddit so I would assume its either a loud minority or the instance was already a dumpsterfire before it grew.

Nonetheless, if its not properly moderated or if the entire purpose and ruling of it creates the issues then it should just be defederated IMO.

Bleep is a person who has changed my life, Ive never seen someone be so misinformed and at the same time so far up their own ass they pop out of their mouth. It is genuinely impressive.

I see alot of my teenage self here; doubling down on opinions of subjects i was way too uninformed about to actually have valid opinions on. I did manage to get better though, but that was because i listened to the people who disagreed with me. Especially when proven with the straight up facts that told me i was wrong. Not doing that is in my eyes intentionally malicious or what people refer to as trolling.

But I really am happy to have witnessed Bleep, even if i havent interacted with them very much. It has been a great exercise to know what content to ignore and report that otherwise looks “fine” on a surface level. So in that regard I thank Bleep.

On any other level, idk how they came to the conclusion/opinions they did, but i am more than curious to read a study on it!

Was at my first concert this weekend, never seen one of these before and thought it was funny

Doesnt really matter IMO. If you have known bugs and flaws you dont showcase those, or if they are present in the showcase you atleast adress them and show what is to be expected upon release. NVIDIA just flat out didnt care. As soon as motion increases the artefacting is crazy. How do you even decide that this is remotely good enough for a demo?

I feel like usage of slurs are 99% unnecessary. I stopped using slurs in my own jokes when i realized it only normalizes the usage of that slur.

Even if you dont mean anything harmful or “its just a joke” that still normalizes its usage as a degrading term. I mean the sole intention of using that word is because it is degrading/harmful, why else would it be dark humor?

I also just find humor and jokes to be way more creative and funny when you dont use slurs.

I have no problem with the victims of a certain slur using said word since you cant really discriminate yourself the same way others can, hence why using it upon yourself and/or your own group/culture is also common.

For anyone interested theres alot of philosophy and human rights concepts behind this. My partner is currently studying human rights which is where some of these concepts were brought up in way more detail.

Holy shit, dystopia is real

Atleast point the gun in the right direction, please. I’ve used Discord since it’s release, when I moved over from Skype. I’ve seen the enshittification all the way through and can safely say, as with every other SaaS software, if its run by a corporation it will eventually pile into a bag of shit. Thats not the users fault. Ive been looking for a promising alternative for a long time but there just isnt a good alternative. When it comes to features used by Discords users and communities most alternatives are lacking some key component that makes a switch hard. I just hope this speeds up the development of these features on alternative platforms.
