To me, that also feels like the promise of AI. It makes writing *more* super easy. But I don't want quantity, I want clarity. Having to use an AI summary makes the point even clearer.

I appreciate the thoughts here. While not explicit, it sounds like you're suggesting there is, or should be, a technical solution to this. I wonder if the reason that "the socials" devolve like this is because we search for a technical solution instead of treating this as a cultural problem.

I've been waiting for it, and built it for Fedora today. I'm quite impressed so far. The perf is great, and the integration with GTK is seamless. I hear it's great for Mac as well. Seems very customizable, though it's entirely config file based without GUI (for now).

Honestly, with the recent support for RCS on iPhones I find myself falling back to in-app sharing MUCH less frequently. For shared albums that auto update while on vacation or something, sure, but I think those still show up in albums.

You'd need to put the activity of the second launcher icon in its own separate process, right? That way it's a separate task than the other? developer.android.com/guide/topics...

And here I was trying to envision what kind of cyberpunks are walking around SF these days! This makes way more sense! 😂
