Defederation of db0 instances for LLM moderation (awful.systems)

We are defederating awful.systems from:

because it's extremely anarchist to use the chatbot as your moderator (no no it's totally human in the loop) and post corporate DARVO-filled excuses when caught.

see also [1] and [2]

This is a last straw after a string of dubious and exhausting behaviour.

If you're an awful.systems user and you post to communities on those instances, you will need to create an account on one of them.

Well, glad I have to switch instances because of AI bullshit again

glad to be on an instance that is very unlikely to fall for it tho, and also to not have constant federation issues with sneerclub and the stubsack and the like

I knew there had to be one out there... thanks!

glad to have you! we’re happy to be comfortably LLM-free (to my knowledge at least, these shitheads get off on when the slop machine temporarily tricks a person into thinking they’re not touching slop) and frankly still a bit shocked an established ActivityPub instance figured they could get away with using the things at all

welcome! consadulations on having to move, great you could find this one

[-] anise@awful.systems 7 points 3 days ago

Thanks! Spiritually this already was kind of my home instance, which is to say that I have unfortunately read every sneerclub post and all the comments, possibly multiple times. So this is mostly just making that official I suppose
