      @Blender
      Why should artists choose you when you align with the machines that directly steal their work?

        @lynndotpy None of that matters to the argument though: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whataboutism

        @keeya @lynndotpy and no one forked then.

        You can still fork now.

        If it's important enough, open source allows forking.

        So... if it's important enough to shout about, but not important enough to fork, alienating people may not be the path.

          @Blender Well, good job joining the dark side I guess?

          Open source and LLM-slop thieves are not compatible.

          Blood money.

            @greg Can't speak for them, but they see Blender as a project worth supporting.

            @fsiddi @greg white washing blood money is what's in it for them. Also, probably long time deterioration of ethics of another FOSS project like what happened with Mozilla. 🤢

              Note: partially reworded the social media announcement so it sounds less tone-deaf about the controversial nature of the membership.

              @Blender@mastodon.social We don't want you to reword your announcement; we want you to reject and end Anthropic's sponsorship.

                      Glad to know you’re cool with pedophilia, IP theft, genocide and fascism.

                      We are not.

                          @Blender Protip for everyone on *nix. Most package managers have a "mask" option which can prevent further updates from happening automatically. I see that Flatpak has one as well.

                          Best to go ahead and mask now while waiting for the forks to stabilize.

                          For Windows I believe PortableApps has a portable version of Blender if I remember correctly. (It has been a while.)

                            @Blender what the fuck? Why would you do this? Do you actively hate your user base and decided you wanted to partner with someone that will cost you a lot of support and good will?

                            Like, did no one think this would look horrible? Are you all that out of touch?

                                          Note: partially reworded the social media announcement so it sounds less tone-deaf about the controversial nature of the membership.

                                          @Blender The new version eliminates a "Welcome." I think we were all hoping you would eliminate the sponsor.
