TL;DR (from a quick read through) :

The app is inkarnate, the CEO announced they're planning on allowing creators to put AI Generated content on their marketplace, with AI labels.

This plus price hikes means a bunch of people are cancelling their subscription.

Dungeondraft is the way to go IMO: buy once, no sub, tons of extra assets available. There's also Wondedraft if you're doing world maps.

DungeonDraft is a wonderful tool.

I wish I could get it to run on Linux

boatswain@infosec.pub · 1 pts · 310d (2 replies)

It runs fine on Linux for me out of the box.

Oh really? Huh. I'll have to try again

It's been a while since I installed is, bit I think the only thing I had to do was make a shell script executable, which I think it says to do in the readme? Could be misremembering though.

It looks like Inkarnate decided to allow AI "art" in the marketplace.

Oh man, did a subscription service burn people? No way, I never could have guessed!

Before all this LLM nonsense that was AI and it still is. I guess they are just being overly transparent.
