Right wingers consume media made by right wingers based on the left reacting negatively to it. That left wing disapproval is the validation they’re seeking. Otherwise, even dumbass right wingers are smart enough to know that the vast majority of stuff their side makes is utter dogshit on its own

Privat bin ich komplett weg von Adobe. Nutze Affinity v2 (also noch die Lokale Version) und zum illustrieren nutze ich Procreate und ClipStudio. Für Animationen lade ich gelegentlich AE für nen Momat wenns der Auftrag braucht.

There you have it.
so, (barely) reading between the lines of what Twitch's staff said:

1) they were forced by Amazon to add the AI training setting and to make it opt-out, because the overlords know perfectly well there's no reason anyone would ever opt-in

2) the actual Twitch staff who run Twitch do not like this and are of the same mind about it as all of you

3) Taking the time to opt-out, even if you don't really stream, gives them data to take to meetings with their overlords to prove that Twitch users dislike AI and pushing it too hard will drive people from the site.

“Now why is it not opt-in?” said Minton. “That’s what everybody here is spamming in chat. I get it. ‘Let me opt in versus making me opt out.’ There’s an honest answer, and I think most of you can probably appreciate this: If it was opt-in, nobody would opt in. That’s honestly the answer.”

This was followed by a torrent of all-caps chat responses that included “THEN DON’T ROLL IT OUT,” “SO WHY EVEN DO IT,” and “IF NO ONE WOULD OPT IN THAT MEANS NO ONE WANTS IT.”
