I will speak to my experiences with it.

I love solo roleplaying; I've been doing it for years. I was super excited with the advent of Dungeon AI, ChatGPT, NovelAI, and others. I have tried them all extensively. What I have found is that they are great sounding boards for generating ideas, descriptions, and even, sometimes, dialog.

However, AI is not quite ready to replace a DM. I've found that the stories it produces are very flat and repetitive. What's more, they become very predictable once you realize that they act a bit like lucid dreams--it's very easy to influence the story, even accidentally, by what you say.

Used in conjunction with a solo oracle, like Mythic GME, it can be a great asset.

Anything for Kodi Addons, yet? The reddit sub has gone dark.

Not yet; we've only had two sessions. I agree, though, once someone calls me Bob or Bobby, the jig will soon be up!

My character is an Aberrant Mind Sorcerer, with the Telekinesis Feat. I've tried to take only spells that can be explained as manifestations of psychic power. The character's name? Robert Brün. As in, Bobby Brown. As in, Millie Bobby Brown.

I haven't told my DM or the other players about the pun, yet. I'm wondering how long it takes until they figure it out 😁

Same! I keep searching for a new solo instance, magazine, whatever. I'd start one, myself, but I can still barely figure out how to use this stuff.

I'm primarily wanting a place where I can read information for both niche and general topics, as well as read the dissent to that information in the same space.

Man, you nailed it, here. The thing I valued most about reddit as an information aggregate was the ability to go into the comments and expect that I could hear some different viewpoints, maybe get some additional information about the original article, etc.

Case in point: digg still exists.
