After a little digging, #SecondLIfe are running multiple AI ad campaigns, active right now.
I've written it up on Reddit. After we were assured less than a week ago that this was ended by the company owner via @slhamlet.bsky.social I really have no words.

The Switch Lite is bad too IMHO. My 3DS XL is a much more comfortable experience and the battery life is way better. I wanted to love the Switch era but it just missed the mark for me.

Seeing influx of this a lot.. But uh do NOT have NSFW images at all in your profile. Even in picks. No where on your profile. You can get kicked by LL, if someone decides that they do not like you & decide to abuse report you. It's often a petty move but it works.

I don't remember if the post got deleted or if it was when the threads were merged that the URL broke but I took a screenshot and here it is for posterity or whatever.

$2 movies in Second Life? Sounds too good to be true because it was. HiVid ran for years selling 1000s of films with zero licenses. We broke it down & now it's gone. Special guest Tjay Wicken joins us for the full story. #DigitalTheft #SecondLife

Linden Lab has laid off members of Governance, as well as Alexa Linden.
A prior version of this retweet erroneously referred to Alexa as having oversight over Linden Governance, when this was incorrect - that role would belong to Kiera.

These are from the BIRD site. Looks like Linden Labs is laying off some workers. Alexa is a shocker to me, 17 years into a 21-year-old company. That's a huge swing to me.

General #secondlife reminder, It's important to remember that 2048 is Four times as big as 1024, so it should be used sparingly wherever possible, that's why the upload fee is more. Entire buildings can and probably should be 2048, but something small like a bikini or handheld item, not so much.

Ok so, I WAS excited for that new Flickr replacement platform that Luke Rowley was working on for Second Life users... but they backtracked on their policy against AI ads and images, so I will no longer be advertising or encouraging anyone to join it. 😂 Deleted my posts. Sorry!
