A panel from the #graphicNovel adaptation of @neilhimself
's book #Coraline drawn by P Craig Russell that immediately made me think of " #aiArt" 😏

(I hope I'm tagging the real Neil Gaiman and not an imitator... We gotta get him off mastodon.social if he is; half the smaller instances have already defederated from @mastodon.social for not having sufficient moderation 😅)

@toplesstopics hey so as someone who's been here for a year but still feels like too much of a newb to join a smaller instance, is mastodon.online seen as a problem like .social is?
@ephesossh @toplesstopics .social is a problem? Why? That's where I am so maybe that's why I'm ignorant. I haven't heard from @neilhimself for a while now you mention it. His toots used to be quite prolific
@RainyDaze @toplesstopics
I'm not up on the full story, but it seems from other comments that it's had some lax moderation and that has made federating with other instances contentious at times
@ephesossh @RainyDaze @toplesstopics I disagree, it’s big so there’s lots of content. Some of it will offend some people but that doesn’t make it wrong. Unfortunately, there’s a gatekeeping issue with mastodon where some instances defederate at the drop of a hat. (The meme: An admin of your instance once favourited a post I’m uncomfortable with- you should change instance)
