It's not a complete ban, but it does mean that you'll stop updating with new posts and comments. Users from elsewhere won't see any new content on their copy of a beehaw post, and you won't see any new content from a Defederated instance.

There's usually a context difference that might might be significant. People don't write the same way way for an email, like they would a letter, text message, or tweet.

They might write more like an LLM for things like essays and reports, but your usual writing is probably still fine. Then classics that inspire people to write are still around, and I doubt that they would be supplanted by an LLM any time soon.

We might start being in trouble if people start republishing books with them, but that's unlikely to to happen any time soon, considering the current state of copyright around AI works.

No, there's no aggregator/indexer quite like that just yet. Your best bet is to just hope that the search shows up something useful because you captured the right key words.

He summoned the crystalline entity through unknown means, which came and turned the colonists into sand.

There's apparently one on Lemmy.ml, under asexuality@lemmy.ml, but it's also completely empty. You're also welcome to make your own, if you prefer.

@JWBananas Kbin or Lemmy, anyway. The main community is technically over on Lemmy (although I personally prefer the kbin interface).

@CeruleanRuin Tap and hold?

Just look at Lore. He wiped out a colony, and could do far worse damage if he was both more competent and stable. It eventually escalated to the point where Data had to shut him down, due to the danger he posed to the rest of the Federation.

If the community wanted it, nothing wrong with the moderators capitulating to the community. Reddit gets the moderation quality they pay for, and they're paying their moderators negative money, with how things have been going. They can pony up if they want better moderation.

What are they supposed to do, run roughshod all over their users?

Except that it already has been. They've already scraped it, and can refer back to either the archives, or just scrape Reddit like they do with other websites if they want to pull more information.

They didn't pay before, why would they bother paying now? Worst case is that they just exclude Reddit (like they did Twitter), and train from other sites instead. It's no great loss.

I don't see why the content they've created would have to go along with. You could keep the content on the server, but have the posting user be offsite, like posting to another service/community. If the user has moved off your server, just alter the local profile to point to their "new" location.

It would be less overhead than moving the physical posts themselves, especially if things get bigger later on.

"Metaverse" is mostly dead, anyway. It's basically turned into VR Bitcoin, and a worse version of the already existing VR.

A.I. seems to be the new shiny thing investors are moving into, and I'd be surprised if Facebook didn't just silently remove references to the metaverse eventually.

Fediverse, for the slightly cringey "verse" name, does seem to at least be trying something new. Federating multiple completely different sites like Mastodon, Kbin, or Lemmy isn't really something that was done before (that I can remember, feel free to correct if I'm wrong). You had some integrations with things like RSS and APIs before, but you couldn't just go on Twitter and post/reply/read a Reddit thread from within twitter, or you'd have to do it with a complicated network of bots.
