Summary:
I downvoted pro-AI comments in a post in leftymemes community. It was LLM generated polandball comic (Which is objectively pathetic as fuck) that showed up on my feed, blocked couple of users who I thought were unhinged, and have blocked the whole instance on my client after realizing how rabid these morons are.
I didn’t go looking for AI posts like a vigilante.
One user in question got miffed for being downvoted and banned me from places they moderate.
I noticed just yesterday or maybe two days ago that MysticMuchroom had banned me from !stable_diffusion_witches@lemmy.dbzer0.com calling me an “Anti-AI Troll” in the modlog. I’m fairly certain I’ve had exactly zero interaction with the stable_diffusion_witches before or since.
My guess is that ze had previously banned me from !stable_diffusion_mycology@lemmy.dbzer0.com for downvoting too much and preemptively also banned me from stable_diffusion_witches when ze first created it.
Then ze had the gall to come to this thread to troll and file reports to me (I’m a mod here on !fuck_ai@lemmy.world) about people calling zir out for basically exactly that behavior.
Oy.
I think the need for more explicit rules in the sidebar is getting more crucial. I might see about trying to make that happen soon. I’ll probably start by DMing @VerbFlow@lemmy.world and see where it goes from there.
Edit: And now I think MysticMushroom is evading zir ban. Either that or someone else is impersonating them.
