Lol, that's probably 30% of real people still using it
has so far only been used to train Musk’s own Grok AI
The Grok models are a laughing stock in the LLM space. They aren't good over APIs, and they're even less useful after Elon "open sources" them far later. Qwen 72B, and heck, Qwen 32B is already better than Grok 2, which is probably hundreds of billions of parameters. Qwen is runnable locally right now, Apache 2.0, and released day one. Grok 1 is... well, I dunno, no one has even bothered to try hosting it for anything.
I dunno what Twitter is doing with all those H100s Elon hoarded, but it seems like a big waste so far. Its certainly nothing to help the open source/self hosting space or to "decensor" and "democratize" LLMs like Elon fans seem to think.
ive been enjoying bluesky more than twitter. i just wish more bug accounts would migrate. i post on both platforms with a script that i wrote and my engagement/followers ratio is far higher
I tried Bluesky but just couldn't get into it. Same with Mastodon. I like Lemmy because long-form posts/comments are more interesting to me. I'm liking Threads a bit, too.
I like the long form posts and I also find those sort of sites way too fast-moving to keep up with.
Maybe it's because I'm an old man who grew up on BBSes, but forums are much more my speed.
Wonderful. Negative press for Musk makes me smile.
Do they drift back though. Bigger accounts seems to struggle to kick the Twitter high .
even tho twitter is more ruined by him people will still use it
Network effect is a hell of a drug
I hate Twitter, but I'm getting to the point where I want it to get better because if bluesky gets many more members we're just gonna have Twitter again.
One thing I liked about the Muskification of Twitter was the scattering.
Neoliberal guano website is better than Nazi guano website
Idiots users just recreating conditions that created their misery in the first place. Freedom doesn't happen from the grace of some cult leader and their slightly less immediately hostile app
What sets it apart is that on Bluesky you can create your own algorithm. You can also share this algorithm, if you want, so others can subscribe to it. This means you see only what you want to see, and not what some corporate algorithm wants to see to maximise some kind of engagement.
Moreover, Bluesky is also its own federation. There aren't many who choose to do so, but you can connect to Bluesky using your own domain, which you have complet control over.
What pros are there to having a blocked person still be able to see your posts?
