    I tried to go to a bot user recently so I could block the bot and my client got stuck trying to load the profile page. I don’t mind so much as long as the posts generate discussion. In some cases the bots are diluting the feeds with posts too much. It seemed like the offending “community” was a bot post community. If you hate it, just block it. Simple.

    i don’t understand it either it stopped being fun almost immediately.

    and there was never an AI post. the original person that made the trend just made that up.

    I’m kind of getting sick of reading all the LLM and AI crap. i just come here for cute things 😢

    6 in 10 of the top posts for the week mention or allude to AI. This sub is names aww but may as well be anti-ai-aww.

      the fact that you’re getting downvotes is especially depressing. considering this is a place a lot of us come to get away from those kind of obnoxious titles and whatnot.

      i have seen “positive” communities turn toxic for the strangest of reasons. and I think this is a bit close to that for my liking. 😥

        All of the posts were pictures that were fine here though, it’s just the titles, which in this sub are irrelevant

          “hey this place isnt what I thought it was. I’m sad to leave” is not a toxic mindset.

          this whole thread is just bullying in a community that is meant to be a balm from that.

              surely you understand there’s a difference from “I disagree its fine.”

              and “lol nobody cares loser. fuck off.”

              i really hope so cause I’m getting close to following the OP and leaving this weird stuff behind, honestly. i come here for cute animals and art, not this. 😭

      You’ve been here since the reddit exodus so you’d have to have seen all the other silly posting jokes like beans and this is the one that gets you upset? The one where people post cute animals?

    It is annoying, but, also, I get it. I’ve seen more ai slawwp than I ever wanted to see, so I get why people here are putting the “made by humans” tags on their posts. You do what you feel you must to stay sane, and when/if you’re ready to return, you’ll still be welcome here.

    Tbh I am/was a little annoyed by all the artwork and non-photo related posts.

    Like it wasn’t bad art or anything, c/pics just doesn’t seem like the right community to be posting grandma quote art.
