Seeing people parrot popular opinions on AI for brownie points among their peers just reinforces my idea that most people on the internet are useful idiots these days.
They're not meant to be taken seriously. Disagreeing with them should usually be an indicator that we're doing something right because of how often they're wrong without ever owning up to it.
Matrix suffers from some pretty poor design decisions and implementations.
I expect its flaws to get ironed-out over the years, but right now people switching from discord to matrix will find their experience severely lacking.
To give some examples, video chatting is not as inuititive in matrix. You can't even test it on your own without being in a server with specific permissions that allow you to use your camera when nobody else is around. Really fucking stupid design decision.
Another example is the lack of channels. It's mind-boggling to me how they're not implemented yet. Matrix will never be competitive with discord until that changes.
Yeah, di$cord has definitely been speedrunning the deterioration of their platform.
It's a shame because they started as a darling of the gaming community with a lot of loyalty when people were switching to micro$hit like $lack and team$.
I guess capitalism and endless growth don't actual translate to improved products for the rest of us. Go figure.
It'll be nice when our species moves to decentralized platforms like Matrix, but every day we wait is another day I don't get to enjoy it.
I thought copyright and patent laws were supposed to protect the little guy? Looks like as soon as they protect the little guy from big business, they stop mattering.
It's almost like, they weren't there to protect the little guy which is why big businesses never fought back against them.
I guess the useful idiots were wrong, again. Color me not-surprised.
I guess I shouldn't be disappointed.
