  • The thing is; now it doesn’t matter if your job has been done properly by AI or not, what matters is that it’s just cheaper. And when all companies jump on this bandwagon of enshittification for profit it becomes the standard. This already happened with customer support. It’s nearly impossible to get a human when you call for support. All customers hate it, make their life harder. But still all companies do it and with no alternative you just have to accept it. From what I see, the adoption to AI happens in two ways: either you want to make your human driven processes better by utilizing AI or for cheaper with AI but with ‘passable’ quality. And it looks like companies are mostly in the second camp. So I don’t think besides some exceptional cases and industries the quality of work will be a determining factor.











  • For me:

    • Awesome stickers with very good custom sticker support.
    • You can use a nickname to chat, you don’t need to share your GSM number with anyone which was an incredibly stupid idea in the first place. On that account , better privacy than Signal or ShitsApp.
    • You can use simultaneously on multiple web AND mobile devices.
    • You don’t lose your chat history when you login from another mobile device like in ShitsApp.
    • Stores your media server-side. So you always have your full chat with all the media in it. Of course this requires care about what you share with other.
    • Forwarding messages between chats has a lot of flexibility.
    • Message editing. Which ShitsApp finally copied. 🤣
    • Constantly improved. They are always adding more features.
    • The channel support is really good…




  • Exactly. The entertainment value of it is very similar to the early MTV. When you find the right creators for you it’s very rewarding.

    And on top of that for me YouTube’s music recommendations are always spot on. Sometimes it insists that I check a music video on the landing page. Every time showing me the same thing. And most of the times it turns out to be a very good discovery. So it’s a very good medium to discover new music. Funny enough, YouTube Music’s recommendations are always sub-par.
