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.

    I don’t have anything especially useful or insightful to add, but I just want to thank our mods for acting decisively to defederate us.

    Edit: seeing the discussion over on https://awful.systems/post/8293548 I think our mods were actually extraordinarily patient in giving db0 a pretty solid chance to own up to their mistakes and commit to no LLM usage in the future and they instead doubled down hard.
