I’m getting a Saskatchewan vibe out of this one, honestly. Manitoba is stupidly flat, for the most part. The background here looks the toe of a hummock.

the fact that the threshold for slop/not slop detection is primarily based on how recently the image was created is discouraging.
- Comment on Wind speeds 13 hours ago:
Tineye and DuckDuckGo image search. using their equivalents already, but I guess I can try those ones specifically.
Then expect the same reaction frequently. You do you. Half the time I don’t even read the comments on my posts.
We clearly have different viewpoints, and that’s fine, but continuing on isn’t productive. Thanks, at least, for sharing your perspective. I legitimately hope you have a good rest of your day.

I get your point, and honestly, it’s a fair one. I’m not pro slop, and I state that above.
By inundating the web with slop, AI proponents have made it really hard to post/share stuff that’s not slop.
I am, however, a shtiposter. I’ve got 4500 posts over 3.3 years. I’m simply not going to verify everything I post isnt AI. As I said, I do check usually, but theres a lack of tools to do so, and the ones that are out there that I’ve found are checks notes AI, which defeats the purpose. If you have good tools, paste them here and I’ll start using them. I’m not going on a fucking Goose hunt each time I share a meme, though.

Finally someone who gets it
- Comment on Wind speeds 1 day ago:
I try to avoid it, and do some checks where I can’t but some stuff still trickles through given how much I post.
While I agree with your stance in the broadest terms, I think you’re fighting a losing battle, just given how fast slop can be turned out and how wide spread it is already.

I appreciate it, but I’m honestly sick of the slop police.
I don’t like the idea of being tricked by AI either, nor the impact AI has on the environment, but I the slop police everywhere, and don’t add much to the conversation. The whole thing is generally tiring.
Pointing out ‘hey bro, this is AI’ and still discussing the post would be a better approach in my book. Not all doctored images are slop either - Photoshop exists and was how shitposts were made for a really long time. We still discussed those posts, and how silly they were.

That’s true.
I have three pretty much dead communities I made which seemed like good ideas at the time but are just way too niche and I have way too little time to promote them. I’m subscribed to a pile of communities that are dead as well

Dude, this isn’t a new idea. My grandma’s place had a padded seat like this and that was in the 90s.

Shitpost is a catchall community. You can post just about anything here. There’s a lot of discussion that goes on in some posts, and other posts that are simply ‘heh bewbs’ level content.
I love the randomness of it because it jives with the way my brain works. I flit about like a methed up hummingbird, and so does this community.

I liked that community a lot, until the admin banned me for being ableist. I legitimately don’t know what I did to piss them off, other than the reason the left in the mod log (calling me an ableist shitbag).
I feel like I’m pretty chill, and usually cautious, but I guess they didn’t see it that way.

How do I see this on my side?

As they should, but you can’t deny the infighting between other factions. The point remains: we have to take a step back, and focus on the real problems, rather than the bait they throw in front of us.

What?
More like we’re too busy fighting each other to realize who is largely perpetuating these fights and who directly benefits from a distracted populace.
I’m legitimately surprised I had to spell this out.

Oh it’s all organic. I find memes though Facebook groups. I know. You don’t have to say it. If you’re picky about what groups you join, though, you can get lot of good stuff.
Facebook is super accessible, so it’s just really a numbers game, but with the better moderated groups acting like a solid filter.
Posts in groups often have several memes, and so I just browse the posts and share the good ones here…

I’m in this meme and I don’t like it.
4.5k posts in 3.5 years works out to 1,285 posts a year. 3.5 posts a day without fail.
I need to touch grass, don’t I?
