Paywall. That site frankly does not even look legit and looking at the plethora of other AI sites I don't know who would use this one. It's not even displaying correctly and has like 0 information on anything. If I were to stumble upon that site I'd think it is shady as hell.
404media is one of the best independent journalistic sites available. They started one year ago, so they aren't especially well know, but they are a four person org that came from places like Vice.com and wanted to get out of the corporate bullshit. You should check out their non-paywalled articles.
You are almost definitely getting downvoted because it sounds like you're saying 404media is not legit. I realize that you're not, but I'll admit I interpreted it incorrectly at first.
Is 404 an AI site?
No but having misinterpreted your message once myself and then seeing the replies, I was just letting you know.
I think when people read "this site" in the comments, they assume it refers to the link itself. So while the rest of your comment makes it clear, you try to connect it to the (incorrect) assumption. Like 404media isn't a very pretty site so I can see why someone might insult the aesthetics?
I don't know, I wasn't picking a fight or anything
The site looks fine to me, I'm not sure where your criticism is coming from.
Oh, I thought you were talking about the linked news article website. My mistake, I wasn't about to check out the site that allegedly lets you make CP
I specifically called it an AI site. I really don't know how people can confuse that.
You mentioned other AI sites, you didn't call it an AI site. It's kind of hilarious how many people told you why your comment wasn't clear, and yet you insist that everyone else is the problem. Lol
Yeah? Other more actually legit ones, contrary to the one that this whole topic is about. You got to be willfully obtuse to get this wrong.
The manga girl?
It is a independent publication for tech critical journalism, founded by ex motherboard journalists. Only some of their stuff is paywalled, some only requires free account. Agree on their site but their journalism is usually pretty good.
Literally not paywalled.
And they did this for free posts because there's lots of sites that scrap and re"publish" articles.
Accountwalled then
There are better ways to assess the legitimacy of a media outlet than critiquing its web design. The Wikipedia page might be a good start.
I don't like the loginwall, but it doesn't require payment.
They aren't talking about the news site. They are talking about the AI site.
You might want to work on your reading comprehension.
I also think the issue was with your comment. It could've been written a bit more clearly
I don't know how my comment is unclear. Unless 404 is an AI site somehow, which I wouldn't even know about.
The "Paywall" followed by "That site" makes most people think (me included) that you're talking about the news outlet, 404media, not the AI site mentioned. Writing something like this:
Wouldn't leave such a wide margin for misinterpretation
No. "Paywall" followed by a period, also known as "full stop", followed by a line break / new paragraph (which you conveniently removed), which all indicate a separation, followed by comparing the AI site to "other AI sites". You have to be willfully obtuse to assume that when I talk about AI sites I'm referring to the news site there.
I removed nothing. Maybe your client works with single line breaks. The browser ignores a single line break (enter) and only works with one extra empty line.
Nope. https://fedia.io/m/technology@lemmy.world/t/1288370/Hacked-AI-Girlfriend-Data-Shows-Prompts-Describing-Child-Sexual-Abuse/comment/7653216#entry-comment-7653216
lemmy and mbin show line breaks differently, in the same browser the line break is present on fedia.io and absent on lemm.ee
Feel free to make a bug report for Lemmy then.
sure thing boss
I'm not responsible for the display bugs on your platforms, buddy.
I think you're having a Principal Skinner meme moment here...

I know this isn't necessarily helpful, but 404media has an account wall, not a paywall. You authenticate by email without a password.
They aren't talking about the 404media site.
I was in regards to the paywall, hence the separation.
Ah, pardon my misunderstanding. I thought the two paragraphs weren't related.
