It’ll be interesting to see how Discord enshittifies.
It’s the default destination for the niche-interest “cozy web,” and they could go down several paths.

For LLM hosting, ik_llama.cpp. You can really gigantic models at acceptable speeds with its hybrid CPU/GPU focus, at higher quality/speed than mainline llama.cpp, and it has several built in UIs.
LanguageTool, for self run grammar/spelling/style checking.


Keep an eye on Open Web UI. I’ve heard rumblings that it’s starting to enshittify.


FYI, A1111 is obsolete. The diffusers or comfy-based backends are way faster, richer, less buggy and support newer things.
I’d recommend UIs that support SVDQuant, in particular.
Yeah.
People harp on Onlyfans, but how sexualized and “softcore teasing” Insta and even TikTok are kinda creeps me out. They’re literally entry points to OF.
I have a parent who’s blissfully off of social media, and it was interesting to see their reaction to what they’re like now.


Honestly, the mental health and cognition of America would significantly improve, yes.


Facebook.
It’s Facebook in the water.
Also, watch a Fox News broadcast for a bit. Then you will understand.


It’ll literally be a criminal hub, with a bunch of anonymized posts joking about dodging corpos. Probably.
And owls. Still owls.
FBI? No, I am not opening up.


That’s exactly what I said, and meant: I miss my jailbroken iPhone; I wish I could jailbreak mine now. But I can’t. And my 6 would be basically unusable without App Store support now.
That’s not why I’m replying though… I’m curious; what’s with insults like “eat me” over interpretations of someone else’s comment?


First thing, Lemmy is in need of content and likes recruiting. Hence you got 315 replies, heh.
Basically, if you aren’t a bigot, you don’t have to worry about what you say. You can be politically incorrect in any direction and not get a global/shadowban from the Fediverse.
Each instance has its own flavor and etiquette.


They are human. There’s nothing wrong with acknowledging that, while also reiterating that they basically shouldn’t be in that state.
Also, I think it’s important to draw a line between the “rich” (well-off working professionals like researchers, doctors, small entrepreneurs), and people with more wealth than many sovereign nations put together.


Thanks. I appreciate the condescending comment.


Apple does sell privacy. They market it as a feature.
And their hardware sales margins are hilarious.
So in this case they do have some incentive for privacy/security.


In this case, perhaps. The problem is it’s what Apple offers, or the highway.
…I really, really miss my jailbroken iPhone. Honestly I would trade for a (working) iPhone 6 without even blinking.
I suppose not. Not yet.
I know people are particular about WMs, but having to minimize a window vs keeping the window decoration in place seems like a… very minor distinction.
Is the use case rearranging a ton of windows? Something like that?
Oops, thanks.
Apparently, this is hardly hyperbole. For example: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=377162
Talk about arrogance. In the window paradigm, only a few desktops ever REQUIRED a similar look and feel for all windows. Apple was the worst offender for that. I suggest that if Edmundson wants a similar look and feel, he should go get himself a Mac and stop mucking up KDE.
From a quick look at the proposed patch - and obviously without having the full picture - it’s true that it would add some complexity. But it’s code for the sake of people’s convenience, not the other way around, right? IMHO, as long as:
- shading is off by default,
- users get a clear message about limitations and SSD/CSD complications before enabling it,
- the implementation doesn’t introduce impossible-to-maintain logic and limits some weird edge cases like resizing a shaded window, then it’s worth doing.
TBH this is one reason I got off Ubuntu/KDE Neon.
It kept trying to roll Nvidia+KDE fixes forward (including one I dealt with in their bug tracker), which I had to manually figure out and maintain, which I kept breaking, so I finally decided “why don’t I just use a distro where everything Nvidia/KDE is up to date?”
It’s a very Linux thing.
People get very particular about their setups.
