  • EDIT: dbzer0 had nothing to do with this ban, it was done by a Lemmy.World admin.

    I updated my post after another user stated that it wasn’t lemmy.world admins that performed the ban but the db0 team that did. I can’t say with certainty that’s actually the case since the modlog is pretty opaque and I don’t have full knowledge of how [federated] actions are propagated & displayed.

    I (incorrectly?) assumed since those communities had existed for so long on the dbzer0 instance they had at least tacit approval from the admins there and were in communication with them enough that a full ban wouldn’t occur – when I saw the removal in the modlog I didn’t even consider that possibility.

    Sorry for kicking up drama here if the Lemmy.World team had no part in this :(






  • Seems more economic than political to me, but also why such the strong reaction to an on-topic reply? As you even said yourself:

    I don’t really care all that much about any particular issue. I enjoy copying the ideas suggested by others in the fediverse and transforming them into new issues, as many individuals do not take this initiative.

    Your account has existed for all of 3 hours and you’re trying to come off like a well-known fixture of the community whose opinions are above reproach. I’ll also say it seems suspect how quickly detracting comments are earning downvotes but not replies in this post.

    In short, I don’t believe you, your post or its engagement, are sincere.











  • I agree with you in general, but for Stable Diffusion, “2.0/2.1” was not an incremental direct improvement on “1.5” but was trained and behaves differently. XL is not a simple upgrade from 2.0, and since they say this Turbo model doesn’t produce as detailed images it would be more confusing to have SDXL 2.0 that is worse but faster than base SDXL, and then presumably when there’s a more direct improvement to SDXL have that be called SDXL 3.0 (but really it’s version 2) etc.

    It’s less like Windows 95->Windows 98 and more like DOS->Windows NT.

    That’s not to say it all couldn’t have been better named. Personally, instead of ‘XL’ I’d rather they start including the base resolution and something to reference whether it uses a refiner model etc.

    (Note: I use Stable Diffusion but am not involved with the AI/ML community and don’t fully understand the tech – I’m not trying to claim expert knowledge this is just my interpretation)
