So your project is going to end up a vibe coded piece of shit - got it!
-
@Blender anyone know any alternatives to Blender now they are AI humping assholes who teamed up with people who stole people's work?
-
@robertguetzkow Thank you for making your point in a polite way.
Like if your decision to take Anthropic patronage is "polite" on any way.

@Blender i now feel a bit less shitty, that i have installed Blender, but so far did not take the time to really learn to use it.
I would be so angry now, had i invested my time.So deleting it is.
A shame.

@ratsnakegames @aeva @Blender Ubuntu: We did it! Guinness Book of World Records for “Scummiest, Most Out Of Touch With Our Userbase Decision AND Announcement”!! Go us!!
Blender: Hold our slop! -
Note: partially reworded the social media announcement so it sounds less tone-deaf about the controversial nature of the membership.
@Blender
Really? The wording is the problem?
You already got some shitstains on that list like Facebook... oh sorry I meant mEtA. I guess dirty money can taste very good if you just look the other way. On that note, who is next? Lockheed Martin? I bet they have a lot of money to spare -

@Blender And just like that, you threw all the good will and trust you've been accumulating for decades into a blender.
Thanks for nothing.

All right, Francesco here - CEO at Blender. I'm going to spend some time to try and respond. If you have direct questions or comments, reply here!
Why take corporate money? Why take THIS corporate money? Why not throw this out to the Blender community at large and include them in this decision BEFORE accepting this money? The complete disregard for user's very valid concerns with regard to AI and especially Anthropic AI money in a beloved FOSS project is insulting in the current world. How could you not foresee the blowback?

@Blender Tone-deaf or not, this is the membership nobody working in the creative field should endorse.

@Blender Fork it now and only merge necessary changes =P

@Blender Reword it how ever you like - it's all to late, you laid down with pigs, you will never wash off the smell of shit!

@Blender I almost choked on my köttfärssås.
WHAT?!?!
-
@WeirdWriter @Blender - which by the way leaves us with two options: Either nobody gave a single thought to what the kind of people who use Blender would think about a move like this, or they did & said "Fuck the users, we're doing this!"...

@art_codesmith
1. It's a donation
2. I expected a concerned/negative response like for other corporate memberships in the past, hence we try to make it very clear that this is just a donation. This is quite intense.@fsiddi that the blood money is ‘a donation’ is not the ethical panacea you seem to think it is.

bad @Blender@mastodon.social !
sprays @Blender@mastodon.social with the waterspraybottle -
This isn't tone deaf. This is deaf dumb and blind. And what you did there is called "Spin"
@noondlyt @Compassionatecrab Wait — did Firefox’s pro-AI management team take over Blender?
-
@greg Can't speak for them, but they see Blender as a project worth supporting.
@fsiddi You understand you are helping them accomplish *something* right?
Anthropic isn’t a neutral party. You understand this, yes?
Stop trying to pretend this is a financial transaction that occurs in a vacuum. We’re not idiots, and neither are you.
