The statements I saw didn't really seem intended to diffuse the situation. It feels like one individual did something provocative and neither side liked it, but certain people don't seem ready to let go and are keeping it going publicly.

I haven't noticed any real public response from World, so the beef feels one sided, which I don't think helps db0 look like the rational party. I appreciate them being open, but it looks like people just airing personal grievances rather than something that pertains to all users of db0 or World.

I'm not invested any further than not wanting to lose a sizeable chunk of subscribers, but the behavior doesn't reflect well in the instances involved and certainly isn't benefitting the user bases by being a public debate. But that's just my opinion and how I would personally handle things based on what I'm aware of concerning the situation.

Yeah, I was seeing it pop up in otherwise civil conversations and go straight to what I'd consider far right conspiracy stuff or outright hate for anyone Jewish anywhere. I don't recall if they were new accounts, but they were people I was not previously familiar with.

There is much to criticize about the events going on, but this type of talk is not criticism.

I don't necessarily read too much into which direction the pot is being stirred, because it doesn't even need to be from one side or the other when anyone can make and account anywhere and just be a malicious third party that wants to see the 2 other fight. I think all the public bickering is useless between the admins. I think airing all this stuff out just drags more people into the argument.

The call to violence stuff is also something I think should be real embarrassing to any admin of any instance. Allowing that stuff reflects badly on your whole community. There are plenty of people I wouldn't miss right now, but I don't want to live in a time or place it's alright to hurt people we don't like. The pendulum always swings back your way.

We have something really great going on here in the Fediverse, and it's nice seeing so diverse a userbase getting along relatively well. I never thought I'd see one place mixing mainstream liberals, communists, socialists, anarchists, lgbtq, furry, and whatever else we've got going on here working so well. I'm going to be pretty upset if we let a single digit number of people bust this place up. Please get it together, people.

They also think comments like this constitute "pro-Zionism" somehow.

They are deeply unserious virtue-signalers at heart, and it's wild watching them adopt more and more obvious anti-semitism just to show how "anti-Zionist" they are.

Their own caption says it was ChatGPT and I don't believe it can be run locally. Either way, one of the many issues with LLMs is that they come across like a person and are convincing even when hallucinating. Couple that with the human psychology of generally taking people for their word, and you have created a perfect environment for being manipulated. Going by the linked thread, in one instance, the AI included a quote that wasn't the exact quote. You could argue the actual comment wasn't that different from it, but that's more like confirmation bias. Even asking an AI to not comment on anything and just distill the provided content to the most important quotes would be affected by selection bias, but that's not even how they used the model. They literally asked it to find what they were looking for.

Yep that's why i think we should expand it to users :)

However, that's not piefed's fault, nor his. He didn't know, he discovered an issue.

The issue that the piefed dev writes new protocols that break activitypub compatibility has been brought up before. It is not unintentional and was not unknown.

I’m on iOS but I’m using Lemmy. I just know from the Voyager community that it supports Piefed. Maybe you need to create the account on the web version first though.

It has been several months, I just assumed whatever quirks were from piefed being relatively new, I'll give it another go. So far I've noticed I can't see the notes I have for users, like the tags feature but apparently different from the built in notes, also I can see emoji reactions but I can't create them or click to add to the count.

Can I please see parent comment while replying?
