  • Lemmy’s in a pretty good place these days, if there’s any hangup to more adoption it’s the hurdle of understanding federation as a concept and the big time sink of building your subscription list at the beginning. As much as I hated Reddit’s default list of subs I kinda think Lemmy could use something similar to help onboard new users more effectively.






  • By that point I’m pretty sure we’ll have an effective compact model that can run locally and transcribe downloaded videos on reasonable hardware. Or you can just sic a paid model like chatgpt on the task. The corporate Internet is entirely focused on subscription service models now, unless you run the model yourself on local hardware you’re going to end up paying someone somewhere a service fee.

    Edit: y’all need to learn about minified models designed to run on edge hardware, they’re a thing and often work shockingly well.




  • Pro tip, LLMs do an excellent job summarizing YouTube videos now. I’ve never liked YouTube content, the incentives for creators are perverse and discourage conveying accurate information simply in favor of drawing out every video to maximize ad opportunities. About 95% of the content I might have been interested in could have been better conveyed in a 1-2 page blog post and read in 2 minutes instead of stretched out into a 15 minute video. Having a robot summarize that content is so much less irritating.
