@object_stream One question relating to LLM usage: Will it be used to localize any text on the website? I was concerned about seeing some parts of the code that looked to be using third-party tools that rely on AI for localization and wasn't sure on if it's currently in use.

Heyyy everyonee! It's Dan here, the founder and developer behind Object Stream Community, jumping onto our official account for a moment to talk to you all a little more personally ^^ First of all, me and the entire team genuinely can't thank you enough for all the support you've been giving us, we truly never expected this to blow up the way it has, and in such a tiny amount of time too, in just about 7 hours it had already made this much noise, and honestly we don't even know how to properly show you all how happy and excited we are right now, so much so that it's currently 6am in the morning for me and I've been lying here trying to sleep and not look at everything that's been pouring in since around 1am, because realistically I really should be resting, but that's actually exactly how, still scrolling at this hour, I ended up bumping into some of the not so nice stuff too, a few people calling it a stupid idea, some thinking that we're somehow trying to replace YouTube, and then the one I've now seen repeated the most, people saying the whole thing is vibecoded, so I'd really love to gently clear a couple of these up, because they honestly do mean a lot to me ^^ so first, on the idea that we're trying to replace YouTube, that couldn't really be further from what this actually is, and just like it already says on our Kickstarter pre-launch page, everything on the platform plays through YouTube's official embedded player, we don't host or re-upload a single video ourselves, every episode runs straight through YouTube exactly as it normally would and always links right back to the original creator's channel, and we built it this way completely on purpose, because it means the creators keep every bit of their views, their ad revenue and their credit, nothing is ever taken away from them, so we're really not here to compete with YouTube or be some alternative to it, all we're doing is giving people one organized place to discover and keep track of Object Shows while always sending them right back to the people who actually make them, and then the other big one, the whole vibecoded thing, meaning people thinking the site was just fully thrown together by an AI, and I promise there's a real reason behind me saying it really wasn't, and it's not only because computer science is something I truly care about, even though it really is, I go to an ITIS (which is a CS-focused school in italy), I'm in my fourth year now, and I've been programming for pretty much my whole life starting with blockly and ending up with javascript, c++, sql, python, rust, etc..., but that's honestly the smaller part of the story, the bigger reason is that a project with an architecture like this one is simply far too complex to ever be built entirely by an AI, and if I were really vibecoding the whole thing, I probably wouldn't have even been able to put together a secure maintenance page, let alone everything actually running quietly under the hood, like a content moderation system split across four different layers, where one of them runs its own machine learning models directly on the server and lives in a separate process that recycles itself on purpose so it doesn't slowly leak memory and bring everything down, or the backend running across multiple worker processes at once where the caches have to stay perfectly in sync in real time so the moment something changes it changes everywhere instantly, and the thing is, all of that is stuff you already have to genuinely understand yourself just to even be able to ask an AI to build it in the first place, and if you don't know it, the AI won't get it right either, so the whole thing just quietly falls apart, which is exactly why vibecoding doesn't really hold up nowadays, and I'll be real with you, I'm one of the first people to be against it, that said, I really don't want to pretend that I never used AI at all, because being the only developer behind this entire site, trying to do everything on my own is so incredibly hard, and there were so many moments where I leaned on it to explain a concept to me, or to hand me a little snippet or some advice, or to help me find a new approach whenever I got stuck on a bug I just couldn't crack by myself, and I used all of that to slowly keep improving the platform and making it sturdier and sturdier over time, but that's a tool helping me build something, never something building it for me :) and on top of all of that, I wouldn't even have the money to pay for enough AI to somehow vibecode a platform this big, only to then watch it come crashing down two days after launch, since today's coding agents really have no clue what optimization or scalability even are lol, I actually had to load test the site under simulated heavy traffic and rebuild parts of it myself when the heavier stuff started eating memory and falling over, which is exactly the kind of work an AI just won't do for you, and one last little thing, I completely understand that the maintenance page, the way it looks right now, might give off that "made by AI" feeling, and I'll admit, UI/UX really isn't my strongest suit, so for a few of the layouts I took a bit of inspiration from other sites, or used snippets that were, well, what they were, and then did my very best to tweak them into something a little nicer and with some personality of its own, so I'm really sorry if I didn't quite manage to pull it off in the end :c anyway, I just really wanted to be open with you all about this, and I promise we're only going to keep improving from here, we'll keep you updated on everything as we go, answering your questions, and slowly giving you more info and more content little by little, so please bear with us, and thank you again from the bottom of our hearts for all the love, it honestly means the world to us ^^ -Dan <3

@SomeLogicalGuy @Litherally Something else I'll also note is that one of the files that looks to handle localization mentions Locize by-name a few times, which according to its website offers using LLMs to translate text for you. Not sure on how exactly it's used but is a red flag to take note of.

@SomeLogicalGuy @Litherally objectstreamcommunity.com/assets/AiAutom… besides the name being obvious if you shove the text in a JS beautifier/formatter it looks like it selects an AI backend (from Deepseek/OpenRouter/OpenAI/local) in order to automate the website backend. Whole kill switch setup too.

The constant transphobia on here is exhausting. Trans rights will forever be human rights

seeing gooseworx get attacked for her tumblr answers about the finale but I'm lowk still not over how she handled that racism situation

last day of pride month... i just want queer liberation, free my fellow indo queers from discrimination & oppression, free all of my lgbtq+ folks wherever they come from

We are vulnerable lgbt refugees in eastafrica 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️💪 in this pride month HAPPY PRIDE MONTH #GAY #QUEER #QUEER

Here is another angle; If this bill kills your business, you legally cannot sue ANYONE for the damage caused. YOU have to file that bankruptcy, and deal with the debts, alone. While these cronies fill their pockets with literally 40% of our fucking labor.

Happy to announce that Problems and Solutions will be coming to Object Stream Community! A little about the project: It's a platform made by a small team of Object Show fans, built to give the community one organized home for every Object Show! 🧵#objectstreamcommunity #pasosc

Everybody please lock the fuck in and do not let KOSA pass
