Due to people already scraping posts here in BSky for training 🅰️ℹ️ garbage. I feel like I need to remind fellow artists who don't already do it to PLEASE protect your artworks from being scraped by using Glaze and/or Nightshade. (1/11🧵) [ #HelpfulBskyPost #Art #Artsky ]
headline graphic that says "Protect your artworks from being scraped." with 'Protect' in red and everything else is gradient blue-cyan.

Bsky is being flooded with German speaking AI powered bots. A thread on why this is important, ultimately making all social media is unusable. #deutschland #trolls #AI #election 1/ What happened? All these responses to a @zeit.de post have something in common (spoiler: they are not real):
Likely AI generated responses to a german news article.

How to spot bot accounts? Many folks keep asking how to identify bots/identity churners. The truth is, it's difficult. But there are often clues that can help—especially when there are multiple bot-like indicators coming from the same account. Here are 9 strategies I use to spot the bots: 🧵

you already got many great answers, but here is another post i found really helpful and that visualized it for me. it's a bit more work than just saying there's an avatar 🥲 but once each hermit has a description, it can be reused. and it really helps people! bsky.app/profile/cats...

🌟 Throwback to my 2020 research published in @science.org 🌼🐝 We showed how bumble bees actively shape their environment—making plants flower earlier to meet their needs. Nature’s engineers in action! 🧪🌏 Sharing this for anyone who missed it—let’s dive in! [1/17] 👇
Graphical abstract of science paper 'bumble bee damage plant leaves and accelerate flower production' with a list of the authors on a grey background. On the left is a watercolour illustration of a bumble bee damaging a plant leaf with the description 'when hungry for pollen, bumble bees use their mouthparts and mandibles to damage plant leaves'. this illustration is connected by a orange arrow to a watercolour drawing of a flowering yellow black mustard plant with a bumble bee. This has the description: 2) the damage inflicted by bees causes plants to flower earlier than paired control plants.

When you see big "Resister" accounts that largely post generic memes and reposts of other "liberals" Please understand these big follow for follow accounts are ✨farming✨ you. Once their size gives them perceived credibility, they shift into disinformation. Please see my examples below:

Content Scrapers Blocklist (hiatus) @contentscrapers.bsky.social · 26/11/2024
Hello and thank you for using the blocklist! The original list hosted on my personal account @franzanth.bsky.social was created during bsky's early days. It has since escaped my circle of friends and evolved into a multi-purpose blocklist, so I feel it's important to redefine my scope here. 🧵

One thing I hope we can do as Bluesky gets larger is be less tolerant of the resistance grifters who will try to hack the platform for engagement and growth without any interest in adding anything substantive or meaningful It’s a different kind of troll.

Posting this again because a lot of people said they found it helpful! Guide to ALT text: www.perkins.org/resource/how...
ALT text copied and pasted from the linked website: An infographic titled “How To Write Alt Text” featuring a photo of a capybara. Parts of alt text are divided by color, including identify who, expression, description, colour, and interesting features. The finished description reads “A capybara looking relaxed in a hot spa. Yellow yuzu fruits are floating in the water, and one is balanced on the top of the capybara’s head.”

A brief thread on alt-text. Alt text is descriptive text that conveys the meaning of an image. It's designed to make visual content accessible to people with vision disabilities. When a person uses assistive technology such as a screen reader, the screen reader will read the onscreen text aloud 1/7

they do indeed 😊 exciting or intimidating? i found myself lurking in most social media spaces for so long it's almost bizarre to only encounter genuine human interaction that's just along for the ride. the kind that's not the usual soup of confrontational, trying to sell you slop, or bot content.
