Why did you two opt for XMPP rather than Signal Messenger?

Why is that?

Yeah it always feels awkward getting people to celebrate me. Like “hey guys lets have a party where you give me gifts and celebrate my existence”. Seems weirdly presumptuous

You don’t have to get your friends involved, you can just do something nice for her. Just pretend that its Mothers Day or something

If you don’t want to celebrate your birthday, you can take the day to celebrate your mom. She’s the one who did all the work, after all. And I think pushing an entire human being out of your birth canal is worthy of some recognition.

I doubt they would bother going after a one person instance, even if it could be traced back to you

Nintendo has shown that it is possible to attack open source projects at the repository level

I’m out of the loop. What happened there?

Ok so I stand corrected. I guess it is possible but it just requires a lot of man power

we already see a phenomenon going on with Fediverse, and Web as a whole: invite-only and/or need-to-apply places

The need-to-apply model would be totally unscalable for traditional social media platforms because of the sheer number of requests that would need to be processed on a centralized. But something like this can work on the Fediverse because you can split the workload up between different instances

Okay I see the url now thanks. I didn’t know proton had an AI. Seems neat.

That link appears to be broken on my end.

I do too. But if someone really does want to use these tools then there are better and worse ways of doing it

It’s better from a privacy perspective. But yeah, you’d still ultimately be using ChatGTP at the end of the day so another model might be preferable

I recommend duck.ai as an alternative way of accessing ChatGTP. Is not a perfect solution but it’s better than accessing it straight from the OpenAI website

Interesting. It would also make sense that going full FOSS might lead to less social media use indirectly, since most social media apps would require micro-G

I knew it

I’ve tested my local AI and it’s almost indistinguishable from humans in communication style

Why are AIs like ChatGTP so easy to spot then? Is it just the fine tuning?

Please don’t reply to this comment

What so you mean by ‘webs of trust’? Can you elaborate?

As far as I can tell, Signal can’t do multiple text channels in the same way discord can. Migrating a Discord ‘server’ onto a Signal chat would only work if it were a small group. Anything bigger than that would basically just give you a really big and disorganized group chat (though it would at least be a private disorganized group chat).
