I'd love to know the source for the works that were allegedly violated. Presuming OpenAI didn't scour zlib/libgen for the books, where on the net were the cleartext copies of their writings stored?
Being stored in cleartext publicly on the net does not grant OpenAI the right to misuse their art, but the authors need to go after the entity that leaked their works.
Luckett is an unrepentant worm. Chapman is to be commended for calling him out.
Admins paid off? That's absurd. Lemmy.world are taking a moderate wait-and-see approach. I disagree with that stance, but to insinuate they are corrupt because they aren't as reactionary as you are is ridiculous.

Yes, I spun up my own instance. Partly for fun, but also to have control over my own federation should conflict affect an instance someone else operates.
Keep it civil.
My distrust is in Google, not technology.
I'm not a lemm.ee user, but I support defederation should Meta decide to permit access to Lemmy instances. We're here to escape Silicon Valley, not look for opportunities to invite them to dinner.
Where is the indication that lemmy.world have "bent the knee"?
Just because the idea has never been in a game before doesn't mean it's a good idea.
Server owners have discretion over community creation and federation. If you create your own instance, you're totally free to have whatever communities you like.
I fail to see a reason for Meta to be an ActivityPub peer except to stifle growth of our open source network of communities. Big Tech want silos.
What's with the Memmy release notes on the App Store? I think you meant to say, "Various bug fixes and improvements" ๐
