   @thomasfuchs Anecdotally, I've seen plenty of non-programmers say things like "I'm not a programmer, so I used ChatGPT to help whip up this python script". Dozens of hardware youtubers use it for this specific reason.

   Meanwhile, the programmers aren't using it because they yearn for simpler times; we're in the simpler times. They're using them to do drudge work. Porting and decompilation projects have seen dramatic improvements, for example.

   My original point was about vibe coders being just like the other art, music and writing slop peddlers. They don't see this as another tool, they want it to be a replacement for those pesky programmers/artists/musicians/writers who dared to charge money for something they couldn't do themselves.

   Is there a image hosting service in the Fediverse which is good for posting screenshots?

   I do know that there is Pixelfed, but this is more like a Lifestyle image sharing service I guess.

   I do search something like Imgur as example.

   My idea is to host data somewhere so I can link them to other pages like GitHub or my newly started blog.

   Where I am: I use only #freesoftware and standard Linux with non-free blobs so I can use WiFi on my laptop. I won't buy NVIDIA for example.

   My personal journey has caught up to what is right for today's crappy world where most scams are completely legal and too few people know about them to make a difference.

   Someday things will be better.

   Also I play one time purchase proprietary games. Because there is no moral issue with them IMO.

   @thomasfuchs My impression is that the European and American ecoconservation movements were born from (or at least composed of) very different ideologies. At least, if I look at Germans as an example.

   My experience with ecoconservationism in the US is DEFINITELY that a lot of it comes from left wing folks in the 60s/70s.

   So I think Americans naturally think it must be the same here and are unaware of the whole creepy "Esotherik" crap underlying a lot of it.
