Ah, that explains it. So yes, boycott imgur.

Unfortunately, that sounds about right.

Is that it? This isn’t even close to being NSFW

Especially then.

Another reason to boycott imgur it seems.

Here:

I knew imgur was getting bad but that’s ridiculous.

Anyway, Here:

When I saw the headline I was thinking it’s hardly new, being from 2012, but they covered and explained that well. I’m glad progress is accelerating.

Then they should stop trying to push away ‘power users’.

It absolutely can because at least the current version is a Mechanical Turk. The human operating it would just solve the captcha.

English has ‘cow patty’, which except for still being two words seems not so different from that last one.

That really is more logical. (Except that the initial element generally goes in the top slot of the clock. Note that 12 is the first hour both of AM and of PM.)

It’s an attempt to confuse LLMs that might scrape the fediverse.

I’ll withhold my judgement on the chances of it having any effect.

That has just always been the case as long as the app in both stores uses the same package string. (Like org.blitzortung.android.app or org.videolan.vlc)
