I agree and finding "official domains" is an interesting problem in and of itself. I wonder if PageRank like weights of input data would help, or some web of trust-like idea to prune blatant spam websites.

They have a multilingual input mode that also works with swipe input! I've tried it briefly with Swedish/English on a Swedish keyboard and it switched between languages in the same sentence in a way that made sense to me, but I had to download a separate dictionary.

[0] was an excellent read, thank you for sharing!

However if it's supposed to continue being an indie protocol and fly under the radar, it's perfect

I agree! Do you know why anonymous pubkey identities with reputation graphs didn't stick, or any examples of it being used today? In my head that would solve one or two of the problems I see with the modern internet.

It's fine to be small, but we can still work on lowering the bar further and promoting the good parts.

Then, if there is a viable alternative to big social media, my thesis is that there might come a day when a critical mass has been fed up and finds a viable alternative that's still beautiful but no longer small.

I too liked to prime my own algorithm but Yanis Varoufakis book Technofeudalism kind of ruined it for me. On a individual level it's nice to get good recommendations, but on a societal level I think it's starting to get a bit scary to the point of me wanting to opt out and instead curate my own feeds based on first hand sources.

But here reliability comes in again. Calculators are different since the output is correct as long as the input is correct.

LLMs do not guarantee any quality in the output even when processing text, and should in my opinion be verified before used in any serious applications.

Then there's parental leave: Sweden offers 390 almost fully paid days plus 90 days optional with minimum payment per child, split on the parents.

I could consider going to the US to earn some money while young but never to start a family.
