the latest #ArcaneChat release ✨ should be available already for everyone in Google Play (and F-Droid even before, it was faster this time!)

@arcanechat using AI videos I see?
It's your choice anyway how to promote the app but for me it feels like it will do more harm than the actual help.
Federated social networks are full of people who at minimum just ignore "yet another slop" because they're sick of it. And some will even make a pretty vocal drama out of it
@yura well the one starting the drama is you for bringing it up, but if I posted it is because I don't care about the anti-ai radicals
-
@yura@udongein.xyz @arcanechat@fosstodon.org Wow yea, this is really out of touch for ArcaneChat.
There's still time to delete this, folks> Wow yea, this is really out of touch for ArcaneChat.
really? the ArcaneChat mascot in the welcome screen was AI generated (plus a lot of manual cleanup and tweaking work in GIMP to remove all the quirks and weird stuff), even the ArcaneChat logo was created using an AI-generated image as base
I am not an artist, tweaking stuff in GIMP is my limit, if some professional artist wants to work for free full time creating promotional content for ArcaneChat they are welcome

@arcanechat I understand.
I like arcane chat for now and will stop using it only after the evidence of serious bugs created by AI tools.
I don't aesthetically like most of ai videos (like yours) but who cares. Especially since I'm good at plainly ignoring what I don't like
Anyway, thanks for the explanation. -

@mkljczk it is a chat interface to chat with a lot of LLMs and do AI stuff

@MarkAssPandi the video was created for promoting in other places (and will likely keep being reused in the future since I don't have a lot of artwork) and just shared here for the fun of it
now I realize it was good idea, it is attracting the attention of a lot of random people 🥰

@arcanechat oh we going bait route huh
just so you know, this makes this whole project look vibe coded. I assume thats not really a good idea to look this way for an app that states it's privacy focused.
but hey, "no matter how they talk, important that they talk" right? Works great for whatsapp -

@arcanechat I'm just saying how it looks
It hits credibility drastically, and I know it's not just my opinion
and believe me, I am way less extremelly against AI than most of people that would be your target.
And your throw away response of "haha ppl talk" definitelly doesn't help -

what exactly "problem" does shitty looking AI video solve
doesn't look like just "solving problems" to me -

@MarkAssPandi but I appreciate you cared to give advice

@arcanechat ok now I'm gonna be annoying and this is really outside of what I was talking but legit how did you like this result

It looks worse than what 14 year olds would draw as covers for their wattpad stories
Like im sorry like this just looks mid af -

@MarkAssPandi and I didn't do it to bait people, for a second I forgot how full of hateful toxic people this echo chamber is, anything that goes out of certain lines of speech gets mobbed
if you are vegan do you scream at strangers because they are eating a burger in front of you at the park?

@arcanechat So is this just a pet project or is this something that wants to fight against Signal and Whatsapp
Cus you used to talk how you are better than those
And while yeah, I agree its great to point out problems in those
you do this on a projects official account
So when you post something like this, you might deal with people disagreeing with your decisions.
Cus you act like a larger scale project.
Heck, for personal projects do whatever you want, vibe code it for what I care, but you made the project larger than just a personal thing
This is gonna be my last post cus its late, so like
Yeah, you do you I suppose
Have a good night or day or whatever it is
