@harblinger So you need an API endpoint for getting latest replies for a bunch of threads at once?
Let's add it.

I am not against real time API but that would require much more work.

@harblinger @sun What do you need it for? Mastodon has Streaming API https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/streaming/

I haven't implemented it because I prefer old fashioned HTTP polling

@hongminhee @phnt I guess I should clarify what my comment was about. I didn't say that people should reject LLMs because using them is unethical or whatever.

The real question is, whether they will be rejected or not. You both seem to be convinced that LLMs are here to stay, like this is some kind of historical inevitability. If this were true, resisting them would indeed be irrational.

But there is no such thing as historical inevitability. Some technologies just come and go, and such examples exist in recent history. Remember NFTs? That technology was relatively benign compared to LLMs, and yet it was effectively un-invented.

@phnt Did you just say that FOSS maintainers who complain about slop look like lunatics? They don't look like lunatics to me. And even if they look that way to someone outside, it doesn't matter, because maintainers are in charge and all modern digital infrastracture depends on their work.

@greyarea @raucao @lain @sozialwelten @koteisaev Thank you for the advice. I need to start with something simple in order to learn how cryptography works. Then it will be replaced with a more secure scheme.

From what I learned so far, the core principle is pretty much the same in all modern encryption schemes, they differ in how shared symmetric key is generated. Is that correct?
