After a little digging, #SecondLIfe are running multiple AI ad campaigns, active right now. I've written it up on Reddit. After we were assured less than a week ago that this was ended by the company owner via @slhamlet.bsky.social I really have no words. www.reddit.com/r/secondlife...
Facebook lets you see Second Life's active ad campaigns.

If you value the future of #secondlife at all, as a content creator, business owner, or enthusiast, I suggest voting on this feedback on AI policy. AI Implementation is a short sighted decision which undermines the very purpose of SL, and artists alike. feedback.secondlife.com/feature-requ...

#secondlife #sl Seeing influx of this a lot.. But uh do NOT have NSFW images at all in your profile. Even in picks. No where on your profile. You can get kicked by LL, if someone decides that they do not like you & decide to abuse report you. It's often a petty move but it works.
Great new LLM chatbot feature from @lindenlab.bsky.social has been added to #SecondLife - Introducing, the sexual assault model. Yes REALLY. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Iwu...

$2 movies in Second Life? Sounds too good to be true because it was. HiVid ran for years selling 1000s of films with zero licenses. We broke it down & now it's gone. Special guest Tjay Wicken joins us for the full story. #DigitalTheft #SecondLife

Dave the Turner runs a photography club in Resonite as well! The club not only takes pictures, but works on new camera systems to explore what's possible.

Linden Lab has laid off members of Governance, as well as Alexa Linden. A prior version of this retweet erroneously referred to Alexa as having oversight over Linden Governance, when this was incorrect - that role would belong to Kiera.
Streex Foxtrot@foxtrotbreedables.com · 2y agoThese are from the BIRD site. Looks like Linden Labs is laying off some workers. Alexa is a shocker to me, 17 years into a 21-year-old company. That's a huge swing to me.
General #secondlife reminder, It's important to remember that 2048 is Four times as big as 1024, so it should be used sparingly wherever possible, that's why the upload fee is more. Entire buildings can and probably should be 2048, but something small like a bikini or handheld item, not so much.
Ok so, I WAS excited for that new Flickr replacement platform that Luke Rowley was working on for Second Life users... but they backtracked on their policy against AI ads and images, so I will no longer be advertising or encouraging anyone to join it. 😂 Deleted my posts. Sorry!
You've already seen this menace to society run around! The Thunnus Bay Tunny are our first avatar/animesh companion. They come in 4 sizes, can emote, run, walk, swim and more. We also have an ADD-ON texture pack with a set of 9 more colours! Details: flic.kr/p/2pNYQsY
I love how insular the Second Life community is. People say the craziest shit without realizing how they look to the outside world. Right now there are people in the forums having a meltdown because they can't have naked child avatars anymore. You couldn't make this shit up.

I'm curious what Linden Lab's standards are/were regarding public facing accounts on third party websites, specifically Flickr. Patch Linden's photos on Flickr have been either hidden or deleted, (though archived externally,)...
If anyone reading these articles about @secondlife needs help, the SA hotline number is 1 800-656-4673, and the suicide line is 988. Don't be afraid to use these resources.
I'm finally here because of the allegations recently made against Linden Lab and Patch Linden of Second Life. Part of scouring the internet on discussion of the subject.
