Catch42

This. It was an interesting read and gives me doubts, but it's undoubtably better than using google and I can set it to my default search engine in safari

I already knew what that term means and I still had trouble parsing what the headline was talking about.

Mine is 5, being influenced by 4, all being bedrock by 7. That is I I don't know how to do custom CSS(5), and I don't want to learn (4) right now because it'll probably break sooner rather than later (7)

"Another employee question in the companywide meeting asked if Google can more easily surface “authentic discussion” since the “Reddit blackout” was making it harder to find such content.

CEO Sundar Pichai chimed in to to say that users don’t want “blue links” as much as they want “more comprehensive answers.”

No I'm pretty sure people really are looking for authentic discussion, twisting that to say that we want more comprehensive answers is clearly Pichai trying to make the situation fit what he already wants to do: implement generative AI in response to searches to keep people on the site.

As the others have pointed out, this is a kbin thread. Since your account is on an instance that's federated, all the content comes to you, you don't have to do anything special.

I'm having a hard time putting my finger on why it lost its sheen

Oh I don't know maybe it has something to do with Sam Bankman-Fried swindling $8 billion.

I only have so many interesting things to say. I don't really want to post for the sake of generating content, so making 5-10 posts right off the bat seems like the wrong way to go about it. I think it'd be better to make one post a day or one every other day or so that anyone who comes in can see that it's recently active.

Does account migration work in this part of the fediverse? I know on Mastadon you can move instances pretty easily.

The only point of karma and account age is to be able to post in subreddits that have minimum karma requirements and so people don't think you're a shill. But if you don't plan to post anymore, there's not anything to regret.

So is it like a cross between journaling and citation management software? I'm trying to figure out what proponents are getting out of this above what I get from just bookmarking interesting sites.

I like, let's all help the fediverse bloom :)

He likes what Elon has done to twitter? Reddit's screwed. He thinks Elon made good financial decisions with twitter? Huffman's screwed too. Elon is so rich that we might never know how much financial damage he's done to twitter. Huffman doesn't have that safety net.
