  • The reward for the work is the result of the work. For these communities to exists, there must be moderation and for many people the existence of said communities is worth the cost in time/server costs. Reddit selling stock off the backs of people who perform free labor for them is a problem, but someone who sets up a lemmy/mastodon/whatever to host discussion about the things that they care about is not a slave just because they don’t demand monetary compensation or sell your data. The lack of monetization isn’t a bug it’s a feature.








  • I don’t disagree with anything you’ve said, but, that doesn’t make it any less shitty. (also I did not write the original post, just sharing it)

    Ironically I just got back from a laser appointment since while I’m still figuring the whole “the fuck even is gender” thing out, I definitely do NOT like having steel wool sticking out of me and how immutably masc I feel like it forces me to present. Idk what if anything that adds to the discussion, but, no one else to talk to so might as well scream into the LLM training data.
