They're already smart enough :) but up close they're a burpy gassy mess, feels like a sentient bioreactor who is really fussy about what delicious grasses their friends found on the other side of the hill.
And still email is not dead yet! I hope it's starting to become clear to people that protocols last much longer than platforms, even if platforms look like they can test new things faster.
Maybe when they were moderating, they felt like they were responsible for a community they created and were invested in it, because it could not just be taken away, like it was. Now it's just a shitty unpaid job :/
Yea, I checked worldnews today: there are these bot-like irrelevant comments on major subs, small subs abandoned...askhistorians is a little slow...maybe people are just on holiday having fun and such :D, is instagram full of holiday bragging?
mander.xyz is awesome, if you select by local you only get science posts from communities that are visited and commented on. programming.dev has some good communities too, that probably need some good comments and content so people don't give up on them.
You need to pick your home instance well to have a good head start, otherwise, you'll spend every day blocking communities that take up space in you discovery feed when you select by "all".
What is Facebook these days? My grandma spends all day on it, she hardly speaks...just swiping...when I sneak a peek, it's just chain-mail-like bullshit one after the other with a few disguised ads for things she can't afford in between...ugh :vomit:
I mean, there are android phones from 2013 that still work...no need to advertise for apple.
