If it matters ... it matters / Re: Dead internet theory

I think you're missing the point, Pushee.
What Nena is pointing out is that there are more bots on this forum than there are actual people.
Take my post "Sundance".
According to stats it has been "read" 2555 times  at the time of writing this post.
Try telling me they are all members of this forum.
Not likely ..  :)

If it matters ... it matters / Dead internet theory
Last post by Nena -
There is this theory going around for quite a while now, the Dead Internet Theory

And often I'm puzzled by the numbers I see in the statistics for the forum. Like this:


Or 50 views in only 5 days for this render:
https://3dgalleria.it/forum/index.php?media/item/old-postcard.70/

Where are these people?
The counter isn't counting every single view if done by only 1 person, those numbers are for single views from different people.

Ok, I'm posting the link to the forum like a crazy maniac, always in the hope, just one would follow and become a member here.
I did it with the shop with zero success, I've stopped doing it for my blog, cause it's useless. Hundreds of visitors, but not a single activity.

The Dead Internet Theory isn't a theory anymore.
It's a fact :(

Thank you !
Yes, it's a fascinating technique but a bit time consuming - as always with good stuff.
But who's in a hurry ...?  :)
A lot of layers in PhS but I most probably will build on this and do some more experiments.

"I love this old movie style render"

I am an old fart !  :)

The oiginal Luminar I got in 2018 did its job well.
Converted the RAW-files to PSDs. The update  did some funky sheit and converted the files to garbage.
So I kept my L 2018 as is, but I was never interested in Luminar Neo...

Normally I used Canon's in-house software to convert the CR2s.
It also allowed me to shoot tethered (for studio use).
And it was free (if you had a camera serial number) !

I can't even tell, how old my Luminar version is and I barely use it and if, just for fun for myself.
