wild that bsky just turned all of this to "hide" by default
Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

it's important to remember that AI shills are shitheads who work very hard to make the world a worse place, and if they're not straight up Nazis - and a lot in fact are - they're the other ten guys at the table

distrokid just sent me an email encouraging me to record and upload a holiday cover song and they'd give a discount of 50% off their yearly fee for it

really fighting the good fight

(i don't like distrokid)

spicy take: modal text editing is actually super common. the whole notion of "focusing" a text input field in a UI (e.g. a webapp) is itself modal.

focused => "input mode"
not focused => "normal mode"

the fucked up thing isn't AI completely devaluing human creativity so much as it's the glee and excitement people have about the devaluation
