  • It’s an interesting thing to ponder and my opinion is that like many other things in life something being ‘OC’ is a spectrum rather than a binary thing.

    If I apply a B&W filter on an image is that OC? Obviously not

    But what if I make an artwork that’s formed by hundreds of smaller artworks, like this example? This definitely deserves the OC tag

    AI art is also somewhere in that spectrum and even then it changes depending on how AI was used to make the art. Each person has a different line on the spectrum where things transition from non OC to OC, so the answer to this would be different for everyone.



















  • Right now it’s not even mastodon compatible let alone lemmy. There are some arguments on how federating with them will allow people to migrate to a more privacy respecting instance and still view threads content, and some users say this will allow them to still communicate with their friends who don’t want to switch away from threads.

    So while we do lean towards defederating from it, it’s some months away before we need to actually decide and till then we are simply listening to and discussing both sides of the argument.













  • The beehaw and world defederation (which I assume you are referencing) is temporary because beehaw believes the increased traffic cannot be moderated without proper mod tools.

    And while you’re right about mainstream things like gaming or technology won’t have a single main community, I feel more niche communities will be able to setup their main communities. Obviouly that’s just my opinion, but there are some signs of that happening already. (c/piracy for example)
