I was trying to remember what your native language was. I know one of the other photographers was Finnish and couldn't remember if that was you. You only have slight tells which show English isn't your first language, but that's potentially a good thing because you can't be accused of using AI. 😉 Even the AI checking tools often give false positives.

My most recent post was in a Spanish community, which might explain why I got an appreciator vote on it. 😆 I think at least one of the curators for them is Spanish and it's becoming quite a large language group on here. I have to admit that I'm glad they have appreciator because at one point the had next to no support from any big accounts, but I understand your point as well. I wouldn't comment in a different language to what the post was written in. When it has two languages and one is English I admit I can be a bit lazy if I'm rushed and just comment in English, though.

If you're old then I must be too. 😆 I'd prefer to be using old fashioned images and thanking the people who took the time to create them if I don't have my own. I feel like we're losing touch with real people and the supportive nature of community. I haven't even used AI for research. I still do that the old fashioned way too.

I had a quick look at the AI image creation on peakd (yes, mixed messages for sure) and you need to pay .05 Hive to even generate an image. Not hugely expensive, but what if you don't get quite what you're wanting?
