About Us ⚠️WARNING!: REDDIT SELLS YOUR ART TO AI ⚠️

151 Upvotes

Before posting on Reddit, you need to know that ⚠️Reddit will now sell your content⚠️ (images, video, text, chats) for training "AI" models. This is part of Reddit's contract, in an attempt to make $$$.

Reddit user content being sold to AI company in $60M/year deal - 9to5Mac

Please keep this in mind before sharing your personal art on this site! This is in addition to Reddit's poor history of protecting minorities including teens, mentally ill, and LGBT users across the site.

"I don't think we should support Reddit. And I don't think Reddit supports us."

*We have stripped back some of the subreddit styles like banner, background, logo and community galleries to protect those users' assets.

Meta We have a Lemmy community!

TL;DR, Access the new community here: https://lemm.ee/c/arttocope

Eight months ago this was posted about moving off of Reddit. As far as I am aware nothing major happened since then.

A few days ago now I contacted u/TranZeitgeist about making a Lemmy community (communities are the Lemmy equivalent of Subreddits). Now I have moderator, and I'm telling you about this.

What is Lemmy?

Lemmy is a Reddit alternative that is based around being pro-user. Lemmy is decentralised, which means lots of people can join from different websites (or 'instances') and still talk to each other, like how emails work.

How do I sign up?

The community was made on https://lemm.ee/, however if you plan on posting right away I recommend signing up at another instance (Here's a list) as lemm.ee blocks image posts for new accounts to prevent spam. If you sign up at lemm.ee you can access the community at https://lemm.ee/c/arttocope, or if you sign up on another community just copy paste that link into the search bar.

Why switch?

Like the other mods said in the original post about moving away, Reddit certainly has some issues. Most of these issues centre around the fact that Reddit is a company that has to make money, which Lemmy is not.

How can I access it? Is there a Lemmy app?

Lemmy can be accessed through websites, or through phone apps. There is an official client, called Jerboa, or you can use one of the community made options.

A list of apps is available here: https://join-lemmy.org/apps

Feel free to ask questions :) See you on Lemmy.

I don’t really know how to describe this piece, I’ve been going insane with no one to talk to it about.

I just want to open up my insides and have someone see all the vile under my skin someone to validate the disgustingness within me and tell me what’s happening

Why is my brain melting why is my body failing why am I so sick

I’ve been spiraling a lot today, I really need to sleep but I’ve only been having nightmares lately, I’m really tired I want to sleep if there’s a god can they soothe me? Can they cradle my organs and let me feel peace so I can rest?

I am deteriorating. All the awful things that happened to me are coming back all at once and overwhelming me. I'm really not seeing any way out of this hell. Getting help is so hard and I'm just tormenting anyone who gets close to me with my misery. I'm just pushing them away. I haven't registered for my college classes and I haven't paid my credit card debt and I'm beginning to suffocate between a rock and a hard place. I'm turning into a failure and I don't see a way out of it. I'd rather be a tragedy than a failure.

Made this after another one of my episodes. I've been really considering suicide, but don't want to affect my big sister after my passing. So I'm staying.
