Thank you for saying this! The Linux virtue signaling is so strong around here that it really is off putting. Like, we get it. You’re a super duper computer person that’s super duper smart and has made the smartest of smart choices in your OS.
I haven’t, but thats actually surprising. Back in 2001 someone had my name for their Yahoo email (it’s an unusual but common one) and decided then that I wouldn’t let it happen again.
For the next few years, I would immediately register for everything that looked like I would use it.
Got a good Hotmail in the 90s. But later on I would register for every little thing like Hushmail. Shushmail. Then MySpace. The best, though, was when I managed to get an invite in late 2007 for a little email service provider that was called Gmail.
Suck it every other variation of RhetoricalOrator@gmail.com!
(Not my actual email.)
Yeah the way you describe it makes it sound like we could build an AI forum where each user is the only one in there and all the rest are ai bots whose only purpose is to generate the content and interaction we’re looking for.
I think Reddit is just the beta version.
