C’est dans les autres articles…
Well that’s what i did on lemmy in the begginning.
So a middle ground is need or maybe we should work on a fediverse accessibility charter ? Something that set some rules for the whole fediverse :
- new software
- 3 years software
- various disabilities use case
- standarized colors scheme and font. So it would be easier to update them.
Ouep mais ce sont des lycéens qui ne connaissent pas tous les dangers liés aux numériques et l’importance de garder un certain anonymat.
Je trouve que c’est une attaque directe envers nos libertés et que le maire et personne qui l’a invité, ainsi que la police devrait etre condamné.
Manifester est un droit, l’Etat doit l’encourager, pas le restreindre. Perso, je saisirai la justice.
That’s a good start but i’m worried that most of us are lazy. They won’t change their habits unless you enforce it.
I wouldn’t condemn AI in this case. For example most of captioned video come from AI. Yes there is typo, lenghty text, missing text, nonsensical text but they do a fairly good job. No one have the time to create subtitle, and engaging professional may be costly.
Without AI, i wouldn’t be able to watch and understand videos, podcasts nor get a transcript.
Adding posts with no alt text to a predefined category or tag (such as Mastodon’s #Alt4Me) sounds like a reasonable alternative.
Yes you are right. :)
No CCP style shit please, we already have enough of that with Piefed
I don’t see why we should support content without alt text. There is people with various disability
I’m offering to void the post visibility :
- the post won’t receive upvote, so it won’t reach the top of your timeline
- user won’t be able to crosspost them.
I’m deaf and i think we should all do an effort to make the web accessible. Everyday, i have to adapt to your world.
People can give a small fraction of their time to improve accessibility. But you are right it maybe too harsh, we should find a middle ground that invite users making the web a place place rather them punishing them.
Long explaination on piefed score
There is pro and cons using lemmy or piefed. Both have a different stance on moderation and offer a different experience.
Lemmy doesn’t check downvote or users with bad reputation. How are you able to act with toxic users ? For example one downvoting a lot and the other one that post terrible thing thus get lot downvote ? Is this good for your community ? I don’t think you will enjoy interacting with them.
Piefed score was requested by most admins and mods. It help us creating good community, our main job is creating a place where people enjoy sharing their experience. There are 2 scores :
- attitude : it calculate the ratio of downvote/upvote. How do you react when people have lot negativity ? Most of us are around 70%. If you downvote a lot, that’s not a good behaviour. There are few users or bots that downvote a lot. their attitude score is around 20% something like that, it is low. It removes the ability to downvote until you upvote and reach a threshold. So it invite user to use other tools (filter) to improve their timeline instead of voting.
- reputation : that’s the upvote you receive. Posting meme don’t boost your reputation. Why ? Because of karma farming. Let’s say i post terrible things, and i receive lot downvote. Meanwhile, i post fun meme and get lot upvotes…
So it just give us a general idea on users and improve community ambiance.
Futhermore, you can’t just take the scoring system alone. Those features work together :
- mods can remove downvote per community. I removed them in my communities.
- filters : you can filter keywords, communities, instances and users.
- report. It is more efficient, i prefer it over the automod that work well.
A simple one, i believe that softwares must enforce them rather letting users doing it.
Here is some ideas :
- refuse “image post” without alt text.
- when you upload picture, you must provide their alt text, if there is no alt text, the picture will be deleted.
- hide user post based on alt text and remove post score if the alt text is bad.
- deactivate crosspost on posts who don’t have alt text
It maybe harsh but i believe that’s the only way to reach accessibility.
Edit :
- alt text autogen + a reminder bot will help users
- The app fedilab (mastodon) has some good rules on post with alt text.
- collaborative alt text.
Tremplin dans le sens où iels boostent, federent, facilitent la formation de groupe vers d’autres ideologies reactionnaire.
I ping @inlandempire@jlai.lu since he is part of the organizing team. :)
Instruction were unclear ? ^^’
1·11 days agoIn fact, the fediverse is divised in two part :
- microblog (mastodon, firefish, castodon…)
- threadiverse (lemmy, mbin, piefed, nodebb…)
Microblog users can interact with the threadiverse. They can subcribe to us and our community. However, our post on the threadiverse, in microblog won’t be structured, it is messy.
Threadiverse user can’t follows microblog users nor see microblog user post except when they post in our community. Last point, the largest userbase are microblog users so i believe we should reach them and crosspost their content there. :3
Si probleme de lecture sur le site JIM, bipez moi et je colle l’article complet.
Ça prend 30s :)
Ah je le met complet si le site est une purge. Tu as ublock contre les pub ?
Tres belle carte :)
Plus précisément, une partie de la population écoute les médias. C’est un marqueur de génération ou catégorie socio-pro.
Quand on fait une minute de silence pour un facho sans le moindre mot d’excuse après découverte des faits…ça me donne envie de les virer pour faute grave.
Merci :)
Bon c’est long, on verra vers 22h ou minuit. u.u
J’espere qu’on aura un peu plus de rouge et de rose. C’est de jolies couleurs. u.u
TL; DR
However, not every videos are captioned. You can’t match the scale of created content.
I have a nuanced opinion on AI. They are part of corpothieve, tech bro that destroy our environement and promote fascism or occidental visio on the world. On the other hand, it is also a tool that can help deaf people in their daily life and scientific research.
I didn’t insult you. I shared my deaf experience. We come from different background…was it needed ? Why ?
I was also there in 00s. Yes, my mom also created subtitle for some french movies. I also created some subtitle for video, translated them…Yes, there was fansub, with a huge dedicated communities. They are awesome and they played a keypart on sharing other culture. Thank you to you all and them. 😊
the scale of uncaptionned videos
However, not every videos are captioned.
That’s the point you misunderstood : the scale of uncaptionned video and the deadline. Given the huge amount of videos, a fansub can’t match the scale of video content created every days. That’s where AI can save my day. It does help me.
If i watch something that doesn’t have a fansub, community : 0 captions. So i have to create a request in your communities. some people may accept, some people may reject it. At best i have to wait some days or months. It depend on our free time since we are doing voluntary work.
You omited podcasts. If i try any french webradio : 0 transcript. Some people used AI to get a transcript for their podcast. They reread and corrected it. It helped them getting a transcript quickly and i benefit from it.
my deaf experience
I studied space design. Teachers shared lot videos on architecture, those videos weren’t captioned, so as a student i poured lot effort to understand what they said in those videos…At the end of day, i was exhausted. I poured too much effort and ended up in burn out.
Later, i followed a course to become a farmer. It was during the Covid period. I had to wait 6 months to get sign language interpreters. Not only i lost half a year battling to get sign language interpreters, but i also had to watch video on agroecology without manmade captions and participate to visio meeting…Luckily, there was some apps as Ava, google transcript and later Lokas (free software from framasoft. It use whysper) that use artificial intelligence. Teachers and students weared mask, i couldn’t read on their lips. So how do you handle it ?
I can’t imagine how i would deal it without those AI app. It would be hell and would have stopped my lesson because of burn out.
The french election in 2024
Another example. In 2024, the french president dissolved the national assembly. Election were upcoming in less a month. I battled very hard to get captionned videos, contacted lot people, joined various group, called deputies to get their video captioned for deaf people and translated in sign language. We were a team and only got two or three videos…
conclusion
I can use those AI app when :
Lastly, some deaf friends told me they used AI to help them writting good sentence. Most of deaf people struggle with writting.
So, I have a nuanced opinion on AI. They are part of corpothieve, tech bro that destroy our environement and promote fascism or occidental visio on the world. On the other hand, it is also a tool that can help deaf people in their daily life and scientific research.
