Literally all you have to do is join another instance brother, that’s how you distribute load. As for monetization, we’ll cross that bridge when we get there.

This is the most upvoted post I’ve seen yet :⁠^⁠)

I’m quite happy finding bugs. It’s the not finding bugs and my code not working that scares me.

Same for me. Last time I posted there was eight years ago. I only keep it installed for the occasional message from an old friend.

The novelty has worn off. I jumped on board and tried out every bot when they were first released: Bard, Bind, Snapchat, GPT—I’ve given them all a go.

It was a fun experience, asking them to write poems or delve into the mysteries of consciousness, as I got to know their individual personalities. But now, I mainly use them for searching niche topics or checking grammar, maybe the occasional writing.

In fact, this very comment was reformated in Bard for instance. Though, since Google integrated their LLM into search (via Labs), I use them even less.

Depends on your phone provider really. AT&T? Chocked full of crap. Verizon? Chocked full of crap. TMobile? Barely anything. Google Fi also doesn’t install anything.

Let’s not even get started on unlocked, AT&T devices blocking updates unless you’re using their service.

I’ve looked at comments I didn’t feel like reading, looked at the score then voted based on that. This is a bias we’re all subject to, knowingly or not.

You see a comment had -20 downvotes your interpretation of the contents is immediately swayed to side with the majority. Removing downvotes looking at you beehaw also doesn’t solve this problem. Less likes than the person who responded to you? You must be wrong.

So I’m glad Lemmy, at least the browser version, shows both up and downvotes by default and the total score is hidden away in the top right. Helps remove a little bit of bias.

Oddly, I can tell exactly how an apple will taste just by touching it. Shiny smooth apples are usually soft/mushy and have no taste. You want a rough texture with a little grip.

Im not sure how Memmy works or what it looks like, but on Jerboa you should see a link symbol like this by the post information.

See if you can find something similar, or if there is a link you can click on.

You are correct my good sir, I imagine their excuse would be that it subsidizes the device.
