  • This Person is an Anti-AI Troll

  • Again, easy to say because it's AI. If you apply this logic to other, less-controversial communities that are honestly trying to make it out there, would you still have the same stance?

    Also, don't take this as me defending AI or whatever. I block all communities immediately.

  • Like seeing the content in your all/new feed, and just downvoting the stuff you don't like while scrolling past them. Instead of engaging with the community (with comments or nuanced posts) or ignoring them, it's actively harming communities. Right now it's easy to hate on AI, but it works for any community.

  • Sure, but the community owners can still ban you for trying to actively reduce their visibility.

    I'm not saying I'd like that to happen, but it works both ways.

  • It can be, an admin could double check I guess but I don't think it's worth finding out.

    I blocked them early btw, so I don't even see them :P

  • What is a thing is visibility. It's not about karma.

    It's up to you to ignore them, not the other way around. And their community, their rules: they can ban you for whatever they want.

    It works both ways. If you can't handle being banned unfairly, then you're not ready for the internet.

  • Yeah I like this, it makes karma farming less plausible too. Although imo they should remove all public visibility of votes and just leave the algo to work behind the scenes

  • i never understood why folks get so anal about downvoting. if I don’t like it, I downvote. it’s my vote.

    Because it's a net negative on a community. (gen)AI is already controversial, so if a community wants to grow and get visibility, the last they can use is a bunch of bitter users that downvote every new post and don't interact with the community in any other, meaningful way.

  • There's been a few discussions about this, you are probably downvoting AI posts and if it's a pattern (just downvotes without anything else) they see it as non-constructive participation and ban you.

    Not saying I completely agree, but I get where they are coming from. Communities should be free from drive-by downvotes, no matter the subject. Even stuff I hate should get a community, it's up to me to ignore it

  • Thank you Tim Apple, who by the way is looking a little pudgy

  • If Trump would decide Apple "has to go", the US can stop pretending that they live in a democracy.

    What a nice void that is!

  • Fellow Lemmite cat lovers, I'm vibecoding a bunch of games about cats. All free to play, no trackers, no money, all just for fun. Enjoy!

    Jump

  • I get it and I commend you for that. The thing is, that consistency, feel and flow is what makes a game look and feel good.

    Here's some specifics:

    • Cat's Eye Chaos: camera goes way too fast, can't really track the ball at times. Also, because the ball can go up so high, you don't know whether you're picking up power ups correctly which can lead to frustration. I also didn't know that the yellow bars were flippers, but I could have gleaned that from the instructions.
    • Cardboard Castle Builder: the goal is confusing and it doesn't seem very clear on how to "win", but I do love the idea, together with the cat checking it out before getting a score.
    • Oracle Cats: this seems to be just 8ball questions and answers? I can't really call this a game, but that doesn't mean it's bad.

    Considering you're doing this as a learning experience, I don't want to be too harsh though. I just wanted to point out that while technically it's a game, it lacks that feeling of elements working nearly together to make a fun experience.

    I don't think you're going to get more out of GenAI though, so I can't really give you any feedback other than try to do it without AI. But that's probably not very fair, I can't even program myself so that sounds hypocritical

    Edit: hypocritical

  • You put it on the website, so imo you did nothing wrong. It's not like you tried to hide it

  • The games are very inconsistent and sometimes not even enjoyable. Apparently you vibe coded all these apps? The cover art pictures gives away the use of GenAI.

    Imo, focus on 4-6 games in different genres and actually make them a game instead of a soulless interactive element. Quality over quantity.

  • Nintendo briefly opened a survey to ask players their opinion on digital and physical games – could there be changes after the negative response to Switch 2 Game Key Cards?

    Jump

  • I don't fully understand the controversy here.

    Aren't game key cards just digital keys but shipped physically? How is this any different than with the Switch 1, that only did digital and physical depending on the developer / publisher?

  • But no one in Europe has any interest in buying a Charger or an F-150 because those vehicles simply don't make sense on European roads.

    They are here. But most of us point and laugh and ridicule them.
