Community Rules
You must post before you leave
Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).
Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.
Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.
Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very "off topic".
Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.
Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.
Proselytization, support, or defense of authoritarianism is not welcome. This includes but is not limited to: imperialism, nationalism, genocide denial, ethnic or racial supremacy, fascism, Nazism, Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, etc.
Avoid AI generated content.
Avoid misinformation.
Avoid incomprehensible posts.
No threats or personal attacks.
No spam.
Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

AI slop but ok
I can't even trust music that comes on anymore since I got really into an artist briefly before learning it was AI
How did you tell?
The ones on the background have different graphic, that alone is not enough because its something it can happens. But the tell is the weight of the container and the way is being handled, unless is a gallon of air it can't be handled like that.
All the prices are 3.29 as well which is unlikely for real life. I will debate that a rock climber or other strong grip athelete could grip the jug like that, but why would they?
Also with the graphics not lining up, the handle is also on the oposite side for the ones on the shelf which should be displaying the back side of the label which is typically ingredients and nutrition rather than a second full graphic label in the same language.
Not without deforming it, but otherwise slam dunk
I don't think it's ai though, more like a fake product staged to look real. The rest of the image makes too much sense for ai. It could also be heavily edited with an AI picture as the baseline
The bottles also have different shapes, and the white on the shelf below have no handle.
From the original post it really does seem to be ai and not photoshop as it was originally from an account that posts ai slop stuff. Sad, I thought it was something with more effort
Also the one close to the camera has a different kind of handle than those on display. The top row milk cartons don't have space between some of them.
The compression artifacts are very inconsistent. Like generally when you get compression artifacts on an image, they’re of the same scale across the whole image, because the same process has been applied to the whole image. But with a generated image, there will be some base line compression if the image has been shared, but under that there will be weird artifacting that only appears in certain parts of the image that’s being applied during image generation due to artifacts on images in the training data.
Like, compare the text in the blue sky post, the artifacting there is very consistent, but it’s all over the place in the milk image with certain areas having massive nonsense artifacts, while other parts no more than the text in the blue sky image.
I love how everyone is giving you very detailed, technical explanations regarding the image quality.
While I'm just here like "okay look at it? that's not a product that exists in real life."
My thought was that it could still be photoshop but it isn't
God dang it I need to stop looking at stuff when I'm tired
