I don't think your wrong, the add-supported model is the thing most threatened by the rise of AI content, however the knock-on effects to that are concerning. Large swathes of the modern web are built on that revenue stream and while those of us who still remember (or I suppose discovered) the older web 1.0 and federated models will be fine, there's some serious concern over both economic and social impact. If all the "real" information is behind paywalls and all the AI generated junk is all anyone can get for free (which will get worse as LLMs will more and more only have each other to scrape) you're going to end up with a more severe "death of truth" than was created in the last decade through the misinformation campaigns of political actors around the world.

yes entirely separate. unless the entire "lemmy.fmhy.ml" is identical its a difference instance
Instances have different purposes and for beehaw, maintaining community standards is more important to them then wider federation, they also explicitly said it was a bandwidth issue for their mod team, that as things settle and tools get better for modding within Lemmy itself they’ll reassess. I don’t find that particulary unusual but I’m also a Mastadon user and that’s very common over there
While not strictly wrong, many of the the anxiety and stress related disorders are directly related to the pressures placed upon people under our Capitalist system. Psychopharmacology as a field would look very different if it wasn't been used to prop up a workforce that's hanging on by a proverbial thread.
