I get that people are deeply annoyed by iNat right now, but despite its deep flaws, I hope people can see that a better iNat, both the site functionality and the community, is worth fighting for. Here's my personal perspective.

SNOOT COMPETITION let’s goooo

For your consideration: Scolops 🖤 I love these derpy majestic lumps so much. 🌿 🦗

I sound forth my barbaric yawp from the rooftops of the world

Follow the sounds of tiny screeches, to Bird Lump 🖤 (nighthawk, at rest)

I don't even know what to say about this guy, just drink him in 💚 (some planthopper nymph. I love him)

Excited Phidippus workmani lass, if needed tonight 🖤 #EmotionalSupportSpood #HappyWavyLegs

user backlash works so yeah, keep telling iNat what you think of their genAI announcement...

People who call what is happening in LA a “distraction” really need to trip over a fucking tear gas container. The authoritarianism is the entire point.

okay so now we have a bit more clarity and idk, it's not the *worst* case scenario and there's a world where this could even be a genuinely interesting use case (after all, having those things pointed out is key to learning IDs). but i'm still not overall thrilled bc...

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

This weekend Bug and I followed weird dinosaur sounds until we spotted this magnificent swallowtail kite child in a cypress, then another on a distant pine, and got to watch as their parents came by and delivered snacks to both. Quality detour from the main event (invertebrates and plants, obv) 🖤

"Were treated like dogs. Theyre making us lay on the floor. Were here to help Waymo" Its ok grandpa. The war ended 40 years ago. Go to sleep
