Meta addestrerà l'IA con i post su Facebook e Instagram I modelli di intelligenza artificiale alimentati dai contenuti pubblici condivisi da utenti adulti, esclusi chat e messaggi privati. Sarà possibile opporsi

Ossia META imparerà a considerarci un popolo di fenomeni da baraccone, estremisti, paranoici, adoratori di cristo, nazianimalisti, intolleranti a tutto e a tutti, semicolti e progressisti da tastiera.

Nun läuft der Insta-Import für @renehamburg-images.bsky.social zum 8(?)x und ich bin guter Hoffnung. Einzig die Umlaute failen gerade. Nun denn.

"I'm quitting Instagram!
and the rest of META, for that matter.
I'll be here for until February 7th.

You can get in contact with me 
via mastodon, bluesky, cara, behance or 
via email, all of these you can find 
in the link in my bio.

I will miss my community here, 
so I tried to get alternative info 
(websites, other social media...) 
for as many of you as I could, but it is quite possible that I missed you  or that you follow 
me and would like to keep doing so, 
so don't be shy and get in contact!"

Text:"Why I quit Instagram (and META as a whole)
The main reason is, of course, the changes in policy like removing fact checking and protection of marginalized communities.
But that is really just the tip of the iceberg and the reason I started to properly think about these platforms and if I want to continue using them.
Instagram and Facebook have had problems for a long time, problems for me personally as a small artist and problems for society and its development."

Text:"As an Artist
I will admit that I have grown as an artist through the community and its creativity I found here.

But as for actual growth or opportunities as an art business I had to realize that Instagram isn't really doing anything for me.
All I ever got from it were dm's from people trying to scam me.

This is definitely not entirely Instagram's fault and has a lot to do with my own issues, but there are many obstacles on Instagram that make it hard for a small artist to grow and develop a platform. 

I don't think that I, personally, will ever develop a platform big enough for me to actually be helpful."

Text:"There is always this promise of small creators getting big. 

It would appear that the algorithm "pushes small creators" all the time and still I have yet to see that. Actually the algorithm seems to have decided that non-followers should not see my content at all anymore.

I am tired of twisting and turning for meager outcomes.

The ever changing algorithm as well as its ever growing hunger for content that has next to nothing to do with our actual art has taken up way too much time and ultimately distracted me from the things I need to do to achieve something."

So for me as an artist I think leaving Instagram is probably a good and necessary step to grow and get where I want to go.

Put up the announcement on Insta (wanted to do it Monday but got sick as a dog on Sunday 🤢) and will deactivate my account on February 7th, together with my Facebook.

Hello Blue Sky!!! I have been wanting to jump ship from IG for the last 9 months. My business has been dying there and my soul has been dwindling. So let’s see if we can get this off the ground. #independentfashion #jewelrydesigner #smallbusinesss #leavinginstagram

Ich denke darüber nach, fb und insta zu verlassen und hierher zu kommen. Warum nicht 🤔
Denn dort zu bleiben, bereitet mir nur noch Kopfschmerzen.

Just made a Pixelfed account and now I'm working on moving stuff from my art instagram to there. Does anyone know of a way that's easier than screenshotting what's on Insta to upload to Pixelfed? #pixelfed #instagram #leavinginstagram #thisisgonnatakeforever

Migrating from Instagram! Previous account over there used the same handle, www.instagram.com/camillemakin.... Will be posting some older art later on. In the meantime, I'll share some newer stuff! #2D #art #leavinginstagram
