I've been browsing Mastodon daily now. I'm finding the experience reminiscent of my first few months on Twitter, where it is was a challenging to cultivate a list of people to follow in the very beginning. I think federation adds an additional hurdle, but it is still coming together slowly but surely.

Very awesome and comprehensive write up! Thank you for that!
This 100%. When I was reading threads on Reddit, I was looking for a few good comments that were among hundreds of chaff. It seems that here most of that other stuff is gone. Sure, there are comments numbering in double digits and less, but so far they've been more thought provoking or at length (or at least more clever!)
I was a big fan of Boost. I will be checking this out!
That's a very good point! There IS a certain artificial feel with AI generated stuff. I'm not trying to justify one way or another, but in the case of Stable Diffusion, I'm glad to use it because it allows me to "make" art that would ordinarily be beyond my skill level. There's no way I could make the art that I've used in my home campaign on my own.
Oh yeah, I'm definitely using it in a private game and not using it for any sort of paid product. Just me and my friends.
Awesome! That's a great example and it gives me a fresh look on how to better utilize these modern tools.
That's absolutely something I need to take advantage of. I usually just sit there and spam "regenerate response" until I get something I like, but I always forget I can "massage" the results as well.
Oh man, that's a FANTASTIC avenue I hadn't even considered! Thanks for mentioning that!
That sucks, but I'm partially glad. I deleted my Twitter account like a lot of other people did, but I still would click on links to look at Tweets sometimes. I'm glad to lo longer give them the traffic!
The "Create a Track" feature in Stunts BLEW MY MIND as a kid! I loved that game
I use Stable Diffusion to make character portraits and scenes for my D&D game that I run in Foundry. Better than trying to scrounge Google images!
