@Lanske@lemmy.world: Qobuz is awesome and still 100% french. Also the platform which pays artists better then spotify

Exactly!

surprisingly, there is no equivalent to r/beetlejuicing here. someone should make one :P

Relevant community I happen to run: !ashens@lemmy.world

Just a tip! The whitelist command works on the leaderboard post: https://lemmy.world/post/27663919

It does not appear to work on this post

I believe there is, only available to instance mods, community mods, and possibly the OP though if I’m not mistaken.

We need to get some moderators in here. Lots of bigotry in this comment section…

There’s always Ungoogled Chromium. If you do want to suggest Brave to people, please tell them about these downsides as well.

People are already doing that! Not sure if it’s a specific kit but I have seen many with swapped badges around lately.

I begun that boycott a couple weeks back and am not planning on stopping. Most of the stuff you can get from Amazon, you can get from AliExpress at a significantly lower price (they have more variety as well in my experience)

And this is why I’ve never touched anything AI related

It was proposed as a badge, but it originally comes from https://blog.codinghorror.com/the-works-on-my-machine-certification-program/amp/

…AutoMod got it. :P I’m assuming there’s some sort of flag for sending a comment to the moderator hotline (at least that’s the only explanation I’ve got). Hopefully it’ll be back soon.

I agree with JustARaccoon’s reply to your comment, and also this is really turning from a respectful debate into a ridiculous argument for something most everyone thinks is wrong. The artists should get their compensation. I don’t care how “improbable” it is, it needs to happen.

The problem being, how do we get it banned?

By “figure it out” I meant “figure out a way to get big companies on board”

I also agree that ethical sourcing is pretty ridiculous given real world constraints, but I’m holding out hope that someone figures it out.

[Lemmy] is very pro-piracy

There’s a bit of a difference, I’d say. Piracy hurts massive companies that already have tons of money to spare and (to be frank) don’t need any more. AI hurts individual artists that barely make a living as is. It’s like comparing Robin Hood to whatever the inverse of Robin Hood is (OpenAI, I guess). Point is, I have zero issue with generative AI, I do however have issue with the companies behind it. If all of their data was sourced ethically, and the people creating the training data actually got compensation, I’d be fine with it. Everything can be a tool for high effort and low effort content, it’s just increasingly insulting to creators that their work is being stolen and then twisted into something with considerably less effort that makes more money than they could ever hope to make. In other words, dead internet theory.
