Why would I?

So the alternative is to tiptoe around and pretend you’re not using this amazing revolutionary technology that’s so great?

No one has to do that for any other technology. Wonder why.

Do they not want AI autocomplete in the IDE? AI-assisted translation? AI-generated test cases?

These conversations always go like “What do you mean no one wants AI? What about [crap that no one wants]? Checkmate atheists”

Discrimination, that’s hilarious.

Okay, let’s say AI is as prevalent as you say it is. Make everyone disclose it, so that us so-called Luddites can see how ridiculous we are for trying to avoid it. And so that people who like AI software can more easily find it. Those people exist, right? Since AI is inevitable and all?

I grasped it, I just ignored it. Unlike you, I can use my brain to understand things without having a computer explain it to me.

You are right, though, I should have recognized that awkward mic-drop attempt for the slop tell that it was.

Ooh, I made you mad enough to use your own words instead of telling the chatbot to write your reply! I’ll do it again: Slop.

I’ve been working solo on this project for the past year and was looking for a community that appreciates self-hosted alternatives to corporate SaaS platforms.

The key word there is “community”. You’re not part of this community, you just came here to shill your AI slop.

I built

Did you, though?

(Edit to add)

Okay, that was mean of me, I’m a little sorry. This is actually a really good idea, I’ve often been frustrated when using Redlib. But people have got to stop using LLMs to do this stuff! Use your own brain!

I understand that English isn’t your first language, and people can be jerks to anyone whose English isn’t perfect online. But when you reply to people with that distinctive LLM cadence, it comes across as disrespectful; what people think is, “Oh, you don’t even care enough to write your own response.”

If you reply using your own words, and explain that you’re still learning English, that helps a lot. Anyone who’s still rude to you after that, they never wanted to be helpful in the first place.

Sorry for assuming people knew what they were talking about when they said this was an adaptation, then 🤷

Wasn’t Pitfall set in a jungle? Why does this look like some boreal forest?

Then why is Sunup and only Sunup on Codeberg, not Github where the rest of Mozilla’s code is kept? And why is it not under any sort of official Mozilla branding?

Sure. All I said was that it doesn’t actually seem to be run by Mozilla, like you implied it was.

How about you tell me what you see that I missed?

Ugh, seriously? Great…

(Edit) I don’t think this is true? They use Mozilla’s push services, but nothing about their Codeberg repo (yes, it’s on Codeberg, not Github) indicates they’re part of Mozilla.

There’s SunUp on F-droid, but I don’t know anything about them.
