That includes posts generated by LLMs. It doesn’t matter if you “don’t have the time” or “would’ve written the same anyway”, or if “everyone’s doing it geez get with the times”.

For now it’ll also include “AI”-assisted projects that haven't had at least two months of (public, verifiable) dev time behind them.

I found out the other week that its the only social media I have left. Except LinkedIn but in this economy...?

Anyway, its my most reliable way to talk to all of my friends and half my family, and I hate it. But hey, at least its not Facebook.

I run fedora for my main pc, cachyos on my laptop and ubuntu server for the home server PC - for the Linux street cred.

I hate to say it but Lemmy is also social media.

I just reorganized some bookmarks and thought about how can I unite Lemmy and Imgur in one group; Social. I have no idea how this could be categorized other than being social media. Any ideas welcome.

Is that irony, and/or are the likes ironic? This is social media.

[–] joshcodes@programming.dev 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

The likes are for my fabulous Linux distro choices. At least that's what I'm deciding they're for.

And yeah probably meant corpo owned socials

Very clever to mention multiple distros
