No, you need an account on mastodon or another microblog platform

You can’t easily run the normal version. You can install the android version fairly easily, but running the normal version requires you to enable a debian container from developer options

DDG’s one isn’t a straight LLM, they’re feeding web results as part of the prompt.

No, but you can do the same in python

Actually, it seems I was misunderstanding. Apparently all mastodon posts get federated as appearing on !random, so I’m not sure what I was seeing

But on mastodon, there’s a feed that lets you view all posts from all federated instances. Wouldn’t mbin users be excluded from that feed when posting to !random?

Edit: I was looking, and it seems to me that if a user posts to !random, I can’t even see it on their profile from mastodon? Am I misunderstanding this?

My understanding is that mbin encourages microblogging to !random, which you can’t see from other instances. Is that incorrect? If that’s the case, I really don’t understand how mbin federation is supposed to work

The light leaving the house decreases heating efficiency because the energy quite literally went out the window. If you run needless calculations or look away from the monitor, that energy still ends up heating your house

They only added it a couple of versions ago

estradiol

I don’t think too many people are really against durable plastics

Unchecked growth while killing any locals who try to protest

I didn’t know they added cubes to terraria

It’s just another centrally controlled, closed source platform. There’s no reason it wouldn’t go the same way as all the others

why bother? if you need actual private messaging, you can just use matrix

There’s no yet about it. The architecture of how federation works makes it impossible. They can potentially make images load slow, but for the rest of the content it is fundamentally impossible

Luckily, they can’t force federated access to be slow. Once you federate with them, their content is copied to your instance. It’s not necessary for every fediverse user to contact Threads, it’ll just be served from each user’s home instance

Dude what’s up with this community lately

It’s probably ok if you’re used to it, but 3rd party apps have so much QoL stuff that it’s awful to switch

On jerboa, I wish there was a way to enlarge images posted in commdnts
