  • Thank you. I read your comment. Leaving reddit certainly is a great way of protest, but it would mean nothing if only less than 1% left.

    BTW I’m also curious whether there’s a way to link to a comment that upon clicking brings the user to the comment on their instance, or if there’s something you can do to find the same comment that is on another instance without searching it on your own instance.



  • I also felt like something similar happened to ChatGPT. A few days ago I asked it to rewrite some Korean text with Hanja, retried many times, but it kept spitting out the same text without changing a thing. After several frustrating attempts, it finally spat out something with Hanja, which according to my deduction with the help of Google Translate, was only partially correct. A few months ago though, it could come up with something that’s mostly correct. Sad.

    PS: Before anyone replies to me in Korean, I should note that I don’t speak Korean at all. I just happened to have stumbled upon this Wikipedia article about Korean Mixed Script.







  • I don’t think Matrix feels slow because the app is slow. In my experience, I have tried 3 homeservers (community.rs, matrix.im, and mozilla.org (hosted by modular), and there was a really really big performance gap. I’m not gonna say which one is which, but sending message on one (the time between you hit send and the circled checkmark appears) usually takes less than 1 seconds, another averages at maybe 1.5 seconds, the other often takes more than 5 seconds. Choosing a performant homeserver could really impact your experience with Matrix, and it’s sad that people can’t really know how performant a server is unless they create an account on it and try it out themselves.
