but now I am starting to see it myself, blatant bots posting really crappy AI images

There’s one account that mods a shit ton.of AI image communities…

If you block that one account, it will.pretty much fix all of it. They’re super weird and going off memory they mod an insane number of communities for AI images, so I wouldn’t worry about pre-emptively blocking everyone, because it’s just the one account posting most of it.

But as you see posts block the community.

It ain’t that difficult.

But there’s entire instances that the admins have lost it to AI brainrot already. That’s where the communities are usually hosted and no amount of facts, logic, or even opinions and feelings will get those admins to “do something” about it.

The fediverse isn’t centralized, you’ll never “get rid of” any subject or topic. Because even if the big instances do, anyone can make a new one.

“Fighting” the people who’s brains have been rotted by AI will never be productive and most likely drives them further into AI

Not sure why it still needs repeated so much, but:

Don’t feed the trolls

Block them and move on.
