Sometimes you need to write an application to prove you aren’t a bot.
Are bots incapable of doing that?
Not anymore since chatgpt, but not everyone has caught up to that yet.
Mtgzone asks you to name your favorite Magic card and explain why. So, the AI would need to understand all that, know the name of a Magic card, and say what’s good about it.
That’s actually really easy for an LLM
Without refining the prompt on chat gpt:
As a Magic: The Gathering player, one of my favorite cards is “Solemn Simulacrum.” It’s not the flashiest card, but it offers so much value. When it enters the battlefield, you get to search your library for a basic land and put it onto the battlefield tapped, which helps with mana ramp. Then, when it dies, you get to draw a card. It’s a solid choice for any deck that needs mana fixing and card draw, making it a great utility creature. Plus, there’s something comforting about playing a card that’s both reliable and versatile, fitting into so many different strategies.
Needs a bit of work, but that generally does the task
Some software engineers are worried that they’ll take their jobs, but at this point of development, they’re simply not capable enough to successfully, reliably, and robustly implement a system with more than relatively trivial boilerplate logic - and that doesn’t even touch on the creation of robust testing frameworks and the logic therein.
You just join another instance like normal.
But having left beehaw recently, I would say I can’t really see any good reasons to leave lemmy world.
I only left beehaw because one admin I felt was overlooking crap people in one specific minority and it was slowly turning into a echo chamber. Ironically, it turns out the crap person in particular coloured my perception of other lemmy servers ages ago to make it seem like other lemmy servers were a cesspool (they are not)
It was also surprisingly unstable compared to lemmy world servers
I haven’t seen any actions by lemmy world admins however which would encourage leaving.
In fact, you can access mostly the same posts from different servers here anyway because servers are mostly federated
How do you join other instances?
You just join another instance like normal.
Well that clears that up!
As far as not wanting to leave lemmy.world, you can’t see life through their eyes.
Me personally, I’ve decided to stay, but only because my top priority is having an instance that won’t be gone in a year because they have 6 users, and the admin doesn’t want to pay for an instance no one uses.
If I could find a stable instance, with no threats of being shut off ever, that doesn’t defederate with anyone, I would go there.
The OTHER reason I don’t leave is because Lemmy isn’t ready for prime time. I’m on Lemmy.World, which despite the intentions of Lemmy, is essentially the centralized hub. And one of the biggest reasons I don’t leave is that if I want to create a new community, I CAN’T do so on any other instance besides my home instance.
This means I can move to a less populated instance, create a community, and nobody will see it.
OR
I can stay here, create the community here, and it will get seen more often by people browsing by local. Or exploring what communities this instance has.
But I suspect eventually you’ll be able to give instance admins the ability to allow non-local users to create communities. And I suspect the norm will be for admins to allow this. This will allow Lemmy to grow, and maybe users will spread out more.
My biggest reason FOR wanting to leave Lemmy.World would be to be on an instance that doesn’t defederate from ANYONE. I’ll choose what content is offensive to me, thank you. Which for me, is next to none.
lemm.ee is pretty big and doesnt defederate nearly as much as lemmy.world
Oh. Thanks 😊
I see. Thanks 😊
Why would one want to move to a different instance? Why would someone want to be on multiple instances? To be honest, the initial registration process wasn’t straightforward for me and I just about gave up.
