I haven't tried a search engine with built in AI before but at the moment I just don't really care. Google works for me well enough and Chat GPT i just use to outline college essays
I've been learning to hate reddit over the past few years between:
-its awful redesign
-it's focus on more social media aspects like group chats, friend lists, follower count.
-Shutting down third party apps
-NFTs
-WAY too many ads
Basically everything that an alternative like lemmy solves
yea I fully agree! It seems quite nice so far
yup! I think the main dev makes so many changes that he's one of the top github users. No idea how to check that though I only heard it from a friend a while back haha
People are a lot more likely to promote their own products if they're allowed to than to promote someone else's work, and it quickly becomes spammy of people talking about their own "superior" projects. I fully agree that this is great though, but I get where christain was coming from removing it from his post
I can't imagine anyone other than tech bros actually using this in any scenario
The original app always felt excessively cluttered and changed too much for the sake of changing. Moving here feels way better than supporting whatever the official reddit app decides to break today
Smart tech in general is annoying and dumb. I want my TV to just be a tv with inputs, I don't need built in firmware and updates to shove ads in my face. I don't want my car to have a touch screen to adjust the A/C, just give me a knob or buttons.
