Pulled up the dyslexia font so that nobody is safe.

(just to clarify, I don't have anything against the community, just the AI)

Although I follow the community, I cringe so hard at the icon and the banner of https://sh.itjust.works/c/games ... how hard it would have been to find a real art from a real controller and make a mosaic with real game covers instead of that nonsensical whatever-crap

[–] chicken@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 hours ago

I don't like the OP banner much but I do like this one. There's something really compelling about the abstract take older image models had on video game environments.

[–] bluesheep@sh.itjust.works 9 points 8 hours ago

Actual what the fuck choice

[–] marighost@piefed.social 39 points 11 hours ago

The dbzero instance has a lot of that and it's kind of cringe. Easy to ignore, i guess.

[–] Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 38 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, even if you're a fan of AI yourself, read the room.

[–] rockSlayer@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

I don't understand what you mean by this, in a manner of speaking it's the mod's room to decorate

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 15 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

I’m guessing they mean the fediverse in general.

[–] rockSlayer@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 11 hours ago

I guess, but in that case then doesn't it matter that db0 is anarchist and ok with AI?

[–] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 11 hours ago (3 children)

You should block the icon too in that case

[–] defaultusername@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Why not just open submissions in the communities for user created artwork instead of AI?

[–] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com -2 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

If anyone wants to organize it, there's nothing stopping them. Direct Action and so on. I just use what I had readily available.

[–] diaphragmwp@discuss.tchncs.de 15 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

I just use what I had readily available.

  1. Go to https://commons.wikimedia.org/
  2. Type "anarchist [symbol|graffiti|protest|parade]"
  3. Pick "No restrictions" under "License"

Alternative: remove the banner and icon. LGTM that way, offends literally nobody.

Fair enough. I just mentioned it to you specifically because you're the mod over there and also the admin of the instance.

[–] diaphragmwp@discuss.tchncs.de 26 points 10 hours ago

You AI generated basic shapes? What the fuck

[–] altkey@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

If that'd become a popular opinion, it can be turned into a vote, and maybe a fun contest for replacements 🤔 Imagine having a vote that is not about drama, harassment, atomization of fediverse but a low-stake negative commentary causing a good change with a side of community-building? I'm not against machine learning, but I am for nice events ;3

[–] diaphragmwp@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago) (2 children)

Made my own in like 2 minutes. Lines not thick enough, I know, not doing that again tho. There's no detail but it actually hurts to add detail to a tiny icon.

I'd need a time to make my own versions, like a couple of days, but I won't go with a straight regeneration of AI image, and my two-three initial design ideas are:

  1. Go with the harlequin theme, but make the hat on top of the A a rich two-color geometrical pattern like it's usually depicted, with the main dome and side domes.
  2. Drop the A, and make it just a harlequin face, although it doesn't make it anarchism-related, and picking red-black or any other flag color is limiting.
  3. Drop the A once again to make a red or white circled... B? Since it's a B-tier or even /b/-tier anarchism-related humor, and most people are in the know to descipher it, why not, lol?
  4. Or make it F+, for both flip in FlipAnarchy and the unpleasant mark we get for not reading theory.

It looks like garbo compared to the AI generated one tbh.
