you should know - photon selfhosted lemmy client is absolutely nice.
You can login from multiple acounts on differnet instances and effortlessly switch between them.
UI is just so much nicer than default lemmy UI.
you can run it in docker, or just use this instance: https://phtn.app/
understandable, but this community requires posts promoting projects that use AI to be tagged.
Its required for self promotion, there is no way for a third party to know the details to tag and disclose.
It would be like posting plex feature updates. There is no way for the poster to know whether or not any AI was used in development (though given the Plex trajectory, we all know, but thats a different matter).
so I could create slop and then promote it from an alt and it would be fine?
what's the point in having tags in the first place?
No, that would still be breaking the rules as that's your alt :)
