We are defederating awful.systems from:

because it’s extremely anarchist to use the chatbot as your moderator (no no it’s totally human in the loop) and post corporate DARVO-filled excuses when caught.

see also [1] and [2]

This is a last straw after a string of dubious and exhausting behaviour.

If you’re an awful.systems user and you post to communities on those instances, you will need to create an account on one of them.

    This right here.

    LLM usage is bad, but could be forgiven if the instances shut it down and put a plan in place to prevent a recurrence. A little “sorry” goes a long way.

    The lying means that they aren’t sorry and can’t be trusted.

      we’re talking about openly pro-genai instance where good majority of community banners is slop and that runs distributed chatbot cluster. apparently when you don’t just enourage brainrot as a service but also take it into your own hands and cook your own users autonomously, that must be some kind of revolutionary praxis
