If you don’t have google play store or even have it just deactivated you don’t get ads or have limits for some activities in duolingo, as those use gems or whatever else is their virtual currency called, so you get way better experience overall.
At least it still worked like that about a year ago.

While I agree this is probably just reddit data contamination and weird hallucination, it might not be in the future. We don’t know what makes us sentient, we argue what other animals might be actually sentient beside us, how can we even tell when machine becomes sentient?
As corporations put more and more power, and alter the models more and more, at some time it might actually become sentient, and we will dismiss it like every other time. It might be in a year, or maybe in a 100 years, but if machine sentience is even possible, it is inevitable. And we might not be able to tell at all - LLMs are made to talk, and they have all the human knowledge at it’s disposal, it’s already convincing enough to fool a bunch of people.

It does though? Right under the search bar there should be a switch bar to turn on localized search, and a dropdown to pick different location.
Or is it itself location locked?

Looks like Steve is a big boy, and doesn’t need any help with ruining his IPO.

It is amazing to see it grow right before my eyes. Every day there is more communities, and every day I see bigger up ore counts on posts.
It is clear that even if majority of Reddit users stay there, Lemmy is not going anywhere. I’m honestly hoping that we’re going to hit a critical mass that will allow us to steadily grow even after things settle with Reddit. Maybe we already did :)

Safe to say, I’m not going back.
