LLMs are bad because it's unethical to force a computer to read so many reddit posts

I made an algorithmic feed that ranks the popularity of posts talking about bsky not having an algorithm

everyone’s worried about if this is actually the time everyone switches and that this has failed before, but platform changes come and go in waves and it’s gonna be years of both shambling along until one collapses.

hell, slashdot/digg/reddit existed at the same time in 07

it is so funny to see people on here be like “on bluesky you don’t have to be toxic like evil twitter!! we are all nice and fun here” and then invent brand new kinds of toxicity

if anyone actually cared about giving new users good info it would be about how everything you say here is publicly viewable and permanent and also this place is crawling with literal feds pretending to be normal users in every single cluster

and not that hall monitor code of conduct horseshit

so this is our morbillionth attempt at ditching birdsite

advice for new bluesky users: sometimes your old mutuals won't refollow you on here. the best way to react to this is to take it very personally, as a slight on your character. they're glad to be rid of you.

Gonna abandon all socialists ideals now that im part of the 1%

they should have a “struggle session” feed that you can opt in to (or opt out of)

please stop joining the federated network social experimenting on moderation and promptly complaining about the moderation experiments and the decentralization
