Gotta be !imageai@sh.itjust.works. The weekly community challenges are really cool and I don’t think you could find a better space to experiment with and learn about AI artwork. The userbase is knowledgeable/skilled on the topic and also has good vibes.
Personally I don’t see that as a good thing. Reddit had a thriving community of active art sharing subrrddits, Lemmy only has a few barely active art coms and instead floods All with ai-generated images.
B) Lemmy also has active !traditional_art@lemmy.world communities, it just has less activity in general. We can have an infinite amount of communities on this platform, for both topics. It’s not a zero-sum game
Why do you think the existence of the AI image community is hurting the other art communities on Lemmy? I’m subscribed to and enjoy content from both.
It’s not a zero sum game, but there are not an infinite number of eyeballs looking nor is there an infinite supply of content at any given time. If the majority of “art” floating to the top is generated, it will change how people view the platform.
Maybe the AI “art” community being the first to thrive will mean actual artists get a bad first impression and avoid Lemmy. Maybe people do block it and it becomes a problem only visible to those who don’t already “get it” and just block.
There are many reasons why it could hurt the community. How do you fail to understand that?

I agree, it’s one of the things I dislike about the fediverse (I’m on Kbin)
Huh didn’t expect a community I (used to be) am active on.
