I actually super don’t.

You look different from me therefore you BAD and EVIL. You acceptable target for hurting because my group said so. Even though you never hurt me.

I’ve never suffered from racism, misogyny, or queer bashing. I am very very lucky especially given I am a queer woman of color. I know just how bad other people have it. We can at least partially thank tribalism for those peoples’ suffering.

No worries! Discussions of AI feel like too serious a topic, too hot-button for me to feel great discussing online so I got wary. Thank you for clarifying

I’ll be honest, not sure why I specifically am being replied to with this. I don’t think I talked about how easy or hard it is to recognize AI content in the comment, or about whether it should be filtered out or not.

I do think you correctly assumed that I am very much not a fan of AI content when someone is trying to pass it as their own effort (I am guessing expressing appreciation for the user marking AI-generated content as such tipped you off?).

I have managed to actively avoid politics during my time here, although on most servers it does require ignoring Local and always ignoring All—far too many communities to block. ani.social has a very safe Local to check for avoiding politics, it’s just anime and manga.

Because it’s not just explicitly political communities that are chock-full of politics, they are also in meme communities. Someone posts some depressing “relatable” meme and the comments will have people saying “yeah I hate [politician they believe caused the depressing thing in the meme]” or something like that. Whether they have a point or not, and even when I outright agree wholeheartedly it is exhausting. Certain communities post news about their specific topic which sometimes intersects with politics and so that attracts political comments too.

But I can say with the active political avoidance tactic I do pretty good. I will check out new communities via !newcommunities@lemmy.world and sometimes check an instance’s community list and browse random posts on a community that mildly interested me, that is how I still get content discovery.

Also, the problem is the number of users. Neurodivergence is, as far as I know, not the statistical majority. Finding 1 neurodivergent in 100 people is a lot easier than 1 neurodivergent people in 3. I’m neurodivergent, I also stick to the things I’m interested in here. So I am probably a lot harder to find unless you share my interests.

It sure would be nice to have a different upvote/downvote culture. Not sure how to foster that.

Upvote for helpful, funny, otherwise valuable contribution.

Downvote for incivility, spam, off-topic, incorrect.

Note I never said agree or disagree. I upvote a lot of things I disagree with that add to the conversation. Although I also admit I stay far, far away from any political or serious discussion. I think what I am proposing is literally just original Reddiquette (it still is that, it is just that a lot of people do not follow it).

I do not think I can add anything to the upvote/downvote conversation for your specific post that the users have not already said on it. But I do appreciate you clearly marking off AI-generated content as such, and you putting effort into the community.

Thanks, adding to to-read list!

Please link to Ren’Py DOOM in this community if that talk comes out

I didn’t know VNs had talks! A lot look cool, I’ll vote when I get to my computer. (I Lemmy on my phone.) I’m interested in the UI and writing ones, especially about when to branch choices.

Ranked Choice Voting! I’m usually not the type to say this word, but based

!ShortFormVideos is what I instantly thought. !ShortFormShares feels less formal. As an idiot, I might click thinking you are talking about the stock market, but once I saw a bunch of videos in the community it would be obvious to me what it’s about

Oh, thank you! Yeah, if it were not for me going in with knowledge of the plot thanks to TVTropes, the machine translation often using the wrong pronoun and messing up names would have confused me really badly.

I’m a bit confused. I read all the parts I want. I don’t mean to be condescending or “fuck your help,” I truly just am confused why you posted the link because sometimes I can be dumb and not realize things.

Dang I find it impressive that they paid attention to American vs. English spelling variations.

Or they just lucked out and picked the English one, but

That is my favorite genre too! I’ve been using your posts here to discover more of them, as well as a list of works here on TVTropes and filtering by the Villainess tag on MangaDex.

Thanks to the reminders from this community about new chapters, I reread the whole thing since it’s been a bit and I’m pleased to see this chapter too! Back when there were less chapters posted I went to read the web novel, translated poorly right in my browser by Google Translate, and I can definitely say we’re approaching the end of the story. It has been a fun ride.

Wonder if they’ll also adapt the extra chapters/side story things after the end (includes stuff from different POVs)?

Roberto is the entire reason I’m going to bother with Piofiore.

Hey, laughing is fun, what communities?

The story of the light novels centers on a man who dies in the modern world while harboring a longing for magic, and is reincarnated in another world as a baby named Shion. Hoping that magic finally exists in another world, Shion is disappointed when he finds out that magic also does not exist in this new world. One day, while visiting a lake with his sister Marie, Shion witnesses a mysterious phenomenon that was “like magic.” Shion then decides to be a pioneer of magic in another world and starts researching about magic.

Just found out about this show from ani.social. From the synopsis in the post body I thought it would be a reverse of the isekais where a modern person brings science to a magical and medieval society—an isekai where a person from a magical society introduces magic to our world of science and 0 magic. Upon clicking the link I found out it wasn’t that, sigh…

Hey, thanks for the advice! I’ll try to implement it when I can—some posts lend themselves better to images than others.

I admit I’m one of the wanderers. I pop in via Local from time to time because sometimes there is cool stuff, but I’m not subbed because otherwise stuff I’m not interested in would overwhelm my feed. A quick skim via checking in from time to time or Local works better for me.

I see you as a mod a lot around Lemmy. Thanks for your work!

Is this a case of culture clash or me being oblivious, where an actual decent amount of people would think less of Visa for allowing transactions to go through with this? Because to me they just handle money. Never occurred to me they would take a stand against any kind of transaction that is not, you know, illegal or outright murder-for-hire.
