  • Then this would be pretty shitty.

    However, pixelfed is very straightforward about the fact that the focus is on image posts and even if they would not advertise that fact you should realize in less than five minutes of using it that all the posts you see are image posts.

    Additionally there are enough apps out there that show all content (I use the default mastodon app to see image posts as well as text posts, etc.). If this is what you want just choose that app.

    And if somebody makes an app that only shows text posts then this would be great for people who only want to see text posts. I really don’t get the authors problem.
















  • I think that there is AI “art” that goes beyond typing a few words into chat gpt and waiting for a result.

    I don’t know how popular this is today but about two years ago I watched lots of people go wild with stable diffusion workflows. It was a whole palette of tools: Control net, Inpainting, sketches with img2img for the composition, corrections in Photoshop and so on. It took hours or days of manual work until people “generated” the image that they initially imagined. I would say that this would count as art… Writing one prompt into your favourite llm and take what you get: not so much.

    One example for reference: https://youtu.be/K0ldxCh3cnI
