If I had to guess, it's because they can pretty quickly fill up the "local" tab. Some people are pretty anti AI.
Huh, could be. Now that you say that, I remember there was a thread here where someone said they always downvote AI stuff, but never read what this community was about, and once they did they thought it was a reasonable use. Maybe it's just that kind of thing.
Nah, it's just the vagaries of "all" feeds and a few assholes that don't know how to filter/block
I think some people have the setting on where when they interact with a post, that hides it from ever being shown to them again. And the quickest way to interact and hide something you don't want to see would be the downvote button.
That would explain why it's only ever a few downvotes here and there, compared to when someone posts something actually unpopular or offensive and it gets mass downvoted.
There are a lot of posts that are just a picture of a person (or a train, for some reason). I can see those getting legitimately downvoted because they seem too vague to guess a song title.
If there is a downvote bot, given that Lemmy is federated, it should be possible for a server operator to detect that kind of activity.
I'd be nice to have some kind of hint after x hours/a day.
I thought about that - those posts big me, too, but if you scan through it doesn't appear that it's confined to those. In fact, the one I posted that got quickly downvoted isn't one of those.
I'm sure you're right that the admins can see.
Is there a prolific poster that's a spanner, multiposter, troll or otherwise a magnet for downvotes? That might skew a whole community if it's small volume otherwise.
(Yes, that was autocorrected from spammer, but it was just as good if not better so I didn't fix it.)
There have been times when someone has submitted a number of entries in a short time. I didn't think to the level where someone who wasn't interested would be annoyed, but maybe? We're pretty much spanner-free though.
There is some general issues with random downvotes, especially on LW.
Unfortunately, looks like it kept some bad habit from that old proprietary website

Anybody can post a challenge.
The rules of the game are simple, take any song you like from any genre you want, put the lyrics through any AI [you may weight lyrics as the AI allows] that you want and post the resulting image here under the post title Name That Song [GENRE]. After 48-72 Hours or if the answer is guessed sooner, edit the post's title to [Solved][Genre] and put the song title and artist (and optionally any highlighted lyrics) in a spoiler tag in the body of the post.
Other than that, enjoy.
Here is a list to a few AI image generators you can use.
