Maybe they'd prefer "Macroslop"?

they are right. it's their discord and so they make the rules. it's not censorship.

but it is very much letting us know that it got under their skin. and so i will keep using that name everywhere i can

[–] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 11 points 22 hours ago

It's still censorship. Self imposed censorship is still censorship.

So they won’t mind if we start calling it “NoPilot” then?

I also like FauxPilot.

faux - adj - artificial or imitation; fake.

Not to* be confused with the OSS alternative, also named fauxpilot.

They’re within their rights and it’s definitely not something they want to have take off, whether it’s accurate or not.

But apparently their brand management doesn’t know who Barbara Streisand is.

No, that's MechaStriesand.

[–] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 2 points 22 hours ago

That's just going to cause people to invent an even more insulting word.

[–] MadMadBunny@lemmy.ca 45 points 1 day ago

It’s "brand management"

Microslop's Slopya Nadella is getting butt hurt

Microsoft will have plenty more missteps as they continue to fall from relevance.

Censorship is not censorship -- says Microslop.
