This is a follow-up to Tim Chambers’ “The Seven Deadly UX Sins”, in which we collaboratively review where and how the network has improved over the past six months, with a lot of different initiatives to show for it!

    The formatting, style, cadence and tone feel very AI to me. The authors seem like real people with real history and I’m willing to give them the benefit of the doubt, the topic and status summarization is genuinely interesting whether it’s AI or not, but it’s hard not to feel a bit sus reading it.

      You know, you’re not the first person to say that about something I wrote. Neither of us use general AI, and I make a point to avoid all of those tools to do things “the old fashioned way”.

      It could be due to me being neurodivergent, or it could be that a certain kind of writing got slurped up by AI and that’s the default style now. I don’t know.

      I work hard on everything I write.

        It’s very well written. This is just AI affecting how people view well-organized, nicely-formatted, and clear writing these days. Thanks for keeping us updated on the progress of the fediverse and for doing it so thoroughly!
