So, I used to vote on posts constantly—not really to give karma, but as a quick way to mark them as read to get them out of my feed. It was perfect: a single click, much faster than actually opening the post. But now with the new voting quota in place, I can’t do that anymore without hitting the limit. According to discussions on the instance, the quota was implemented to limit voting activity, and it’s already affecting users who vote frequently.
The “Hide posts I’ve interacted with” setting is still there, but it relies on that interaction happening . What am I supposed to do now? Opening each post to mark it as read is significantly slower. Is there another way to mark posts as read in bulk that I’m missing, or is this just how it’s going to be now?
Just curious what clues you see that it’s AI text?
I ran it through two different detectors and one said 100%, and the other said 0%.
Don’t use the 0% one ;-)
I often copy and paste post bodies into https://gptzero.me/, that one is great.
Whenever you see an emdash, especially with no spaces before or after it, that’s a pretty strong tell. But I never take action or level an accusation on that alone until I’ve run it through gptzero.
I use em dashes all the time but always with spaces, and the ones I use are fake. Just two regular dashes. I didn’t notice the lack of spaces – certainly a bit odd!
Edit: looks like my
--gets translated to an actual em dash in the web gui so that’s cool.Oh cool – I think I might start using emdashes a bit now, too!
what about 3 dashes — oooo
4 dashes ----
5 ----- what even is that?
6 ------ is that 2 emdashes?
GPT and GLM are the no-spaces emdashers. Claude and Deepseek both put spaces around it.
These tools are fallible. I once pasted the U.S. Constitution into one of those AI detectors , and it said it was generated by AI.
gptzero claims 99% accuracy and it’s never let me down so far.
I put the US constitution into gptzero.me and it said it was human.
