@ivan18rod @dcs What image format were you uploading in.

@ivan18rod That why people are up in arms with it. It’s just machine learning and relies on existing data, that is obtained from questionable means.

@ivan18rod I think they added AI capiabilities recently, but it started in 2010, so it probably didn’t use AI when it began.

Last year, in order to improve engagement on my blog, one of the ways is to well, improve my writing quality. There is no secret that I use Grammarly Pro to proofread my posts.

While not perfect as there are some questionable suggestions, it cuts the time in proofreading my posts before publishing. Worth the subscription cost, I suspose.

I think the server is back to normal. The current term expires in June, so I might just think about imaging it and moving it to Vultr or something. Need to think things over.

Also because I have 7.7 G remaining out of 37G on the main partition.

@ivan18rod Looks more like a network switch issue at the datacenter.

@ivan18rod From what I heard, it’s a DNS server issue at the datacenter.

It seems my blog server is having issues primarily networking. I’m mulling over moving the server to another provider, given that I’m kind of running out of space on the server, but we’ll see.

Only 20% of active Twitter users are creating 98% of the content. Obviously, not too surprising.

@weebdeluxe *looks at my Bookwalker queue*.

Yep, same here and the backlog keeps growing, but I’m working on it in preparation for the JLPT. All the Manga I read is in Japanese btw and takes me awhile to complete a volume.

The moment everyone is waiting for, our Japanese Media Fan and Creator #calckey server, Sakurajima Social at https://sakurajima.social is now open for open registration. We created this offshoot as some in the Anime Blogging community might find Mastodon UI a bit too hard.

Since Misskey really resembles Twitter and Calckey, which forks Misskey adds a bunch of improvements and features like:

• 3000 Character Limit
• Boosting options (Followers/Unlisted/Local)
• Features Birdsite users expect (Quote Posts/Search/etc)
• Antennas, which not only you can follow hashtags, but also certain terms and users
• Can connect with Mastodon and other Activitypub applications
• Import posts from Mastodon/Akkoma/Misskey/Calckey

If you are on Mastodon Social or Online, I suggest giving our instance a try if you are an Anime/Japanese media fan or create content around it. There are some small and medium instances that silenced or blocked those instances due to moderation/spam issues.

I know this is old news, but the loss of auto sharing to Twitter with Wordpress really dilutes the value of Twitter and is a loss for content creators. Why stay on a platform that is hostile to creators, especially now since without subscribing to Twitter Blue, your posts will not receive the reach it once did, besides the platform becoming unstable.

My goal when I created my own instance is to carve out a safe place for Anime bloggers and other content creators who create stuff around Japanese media in addition to Japanese-media fans (e.g. Anime/Manga/etc). The thing is, Mastodon can look intimidating, which is why I set up a Calckey instance as an alternative as Misskey takes 2nd place and can be a bit easier to use.

I do hope people see the fediverse as an alternative (note: Mastodon is not the entire fediverse). Remember, #BlueSky is not the solution, as I seen so far.
