They turned out pretty nice! My only suggestion isn’t really AI related, but regarding the logo over it
The white border helps the black logo stand out, though maybe having an additional drop shadow could help it pop out a bit more, though that might be unnecessary. Just something I like to do when Photoshopping, but it’s purely personal preference! It certainly looks good, even without it.
But you’re not giving it up, since human-made art and AI generated images can both exist.
Sure, it could be said that AI generated images can oversaturate the internet, but a lot of sites that host art, both SFW and NSFW, have reacted by tagging AI art and allowing the user to filter them out.
There’s so many forms of art in the world and one lifetime isn’t enough to learn it all. Music, visual arts, cooking, writing, etc. I choose to focus on some art forms at the expense of others.
If the technology exists to make it easier to visually represent something on my mind and give me time to focus on my other pursuits, I’m all for it.
That’s needlessly harsh imo. There’s celebrities or big names at least that people grew up with, who may have contributed to core childhood memories or served as a role model for them. To see someone like that pass away can be a jarring moment for many, as their deaths can feel like a part of your youth/childhood dying along with it.
And that’s just the examples that come to mind. I’m sure there’s more. There’s no need to question people’s mental health for feeling sentimental. It just contributes to a society where people’s emotions are twisted and repressed.
WhatsApp if I’m talking to an Indian crowd, Instagram or Snapchat otherwise
I don’t happen to use any of the above though
If you’re aware of the mistake, and what you did wrong, you’re now living with the knowledge on how to avoid making the same mistake in the future. You still exist in the here and now, and are free to continue forward in life, knowing you’re better equipped to overcome adversity than you were before.
I try to think of my past mistakes as vaccines. They may have hurt, caused me discomfort, and even make me feel regret or shame to this day, but I lived through it and it made me stronger because of it. Like a vaccine, it equipped me for something more imposing that might come up later in life. It helps me think of the silver lining- that without these mistakes, I would be much more naive, and far more prone to making an even more disastrous mistake later in life, much like how refusing a vaccine will make you more prone to a deadly disease.
What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.
Yeah, I think it is a consequence of the nature of federation like you said (not saying federation is bad, of course)
At Reddit, everyone had to coexist and conform to the overarching group of admins and site-wide policies, whereas anyone on Lemmy, should they find the admins of an instance too restrictive, can just make a new instance that allows for whatever extreme they desire.
Thankfully, a lot of the major instances like lemmy.world seem to be closer to the middle- still biased one way or another, but not nearly to the extremes of Lemmygrad or Exploding Heads
Some publications often do this. At least on Reuteres, as well as other news sites, I’ve seen that Twitter/X is now referred to as “X, formerly Twitter”, probably to avoid confusion.
But “the website formerly known as Twitter” is just too lengthy for everyday conversation. I just call it Twitter, everyone knows what it means
Of course! I can help try my hand at it
