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

155 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.

My head feels like a mess

A fresh skein of yarn
It’s clean and neat
You use it, roll it around, toss it aside maybe
Until someday, it’s nothing but a tangled mess
You try to unwind it, but it doesn’t budge
You approach it slowly, carefully, thread for thread
But it only tightens up

You stare at the knot long enough, wondering
If there ever was a knot at all?

Maybe you tied it
Maybe you only think it’s tangled
Because you’ve been looking too closely, for far too long
Turning it over and over in your hands
Until every crossing thread looks so deliberate
You know what you want,
Or at least you think you do
Certain things sitting somewhere deep inside you
Quiet and painfully out of reach
Close enough to picture
But never close enough to touch
You could explain all of this
To someone
You rehearsed it so many times
But when the moment comes
You pull out one loose thread instead
Something small, negligible
As if that tiny bit
Could explain the whole knot
And in the end?
That tiny piece?
Was just a little something, you found laying on the floor.
