Good. Until a studio can point to a known-dataset that isn't just ripping art illegally from sources they don't have the rights to use then it's just not worth the risk.

It's not 100% unrealistic that large studios like Blizzard and Riot (who have very clear styles that "work well" with AI generation weirdness) will eventually have huge in-house datasets that they own since it's all created under the umbrella of their employees and contractors who already sign away all the rights when they make content for the games they're working on. But until that happens, it's so obviously a red flag / great area that Valve's move is just a no-brainer.

TMNT was mentioned, and I also +1 that

I would also add Castle Crashers as a recommendation, though it might be a little too bloody / violent for your kid's age range.

It's far more likely lemmy will be receiving 3rd party apps in the near future, meanwhile kbin's API is still nonexistent as the developer has far more pressing work to focus on to get the service running nice and smoothly.
Not that's really a "downside" to kbin or anything like that, since the mobile web UI is fantastic already and made even better by some great user styles & scripts; I'm currently using it via Firefox mobile and thanks to kbin's PWA support it works great with the container "Install" feature in the browser (has it's own icon, no browser title bar, but still affected by add-ons).

But tbh, until the federation issues with all these different instances being overloaded gets sorted out, I'll be using both kbin and lemmy.

That whole album is fantastic.

Every laptop I've owned since ~2015 has been running Kubuntu.

They're not though, they're just forcibly replacing mods who don't want to open with ones who do want to open...

Totally different 🙃

People are leaving Reddit over their moderation rules? I thought the CEO did something with the API.

I think it's fair to consider the Reddit admins making unilateral decisions that drastically alter how users can use the platform as "their rules".

Yeah, absolutely.

Like I said in another reply though, I just mostly feel bad for the tens of thousands of users who were inadvertently driven there by the site being near / at the top of the list of instances on the lemmy homepage, and now have to figure out if they need to make another account somewhere else.

But in reality it's not like any of the majority of new users could possibly have so much of a "oh no all my posts!" moment if they really felt like they wanted to switch lol.

No I completely agree, it's entirely a weird and almost backwards move to be on a federated platform and then seemingly have your goals be at odds with the concept of federation with the majority of the platform.

And while I believe that, as an outside observer, it's also important to realize that from the beehaw admin's perspective they accidentally went from "dozens" to "tens of thousands" of users over the course of a few days.

At the end of the day it's their site and they can do with it as they please, but I feel bad for all the users who were inadvertently guided there by the lemmy homepage listing them at the top, only to be at this weird crossroads now.

Yup, all fixed, thanks!

Okay, I get it now, and I appreciate the hand-holding you're doing here. It's a wonder I've made it this far at all.

But now, this post has a link to [email protected], and if I click the icon i get sent here https://kbin.social/m/[[email protected]](/c/[email protected]) which 404s, but if delete the ! from that URL it loads correctly. This seems wrong?

I think I get what you're saying.

What's the correct format for the url to put into the search bar, because nothing I've done has returned any results when I try to search for those communities from the comment I linked.
