    I see, thanks for sharing! I think given the cost advantage for s3 for storage, it seems almost better to pull from R2 into s3 for long-term storage (some inverse slurper). It's go…

    I know they have team(s) of very smart people dedicated to solving this issue (at least at the individual level). So assuming they care, I can think of two main reasons as to why i…

    I used to watch some of Zizek's videos, though I hadn't seen the one that was linked until now. I'm no student of philosophy though, just a casual viewer so I don't think I can hel…

    I hadn't heard of uTok before, I'll add that to my reading list as well! Sounds like they were doing something similar in style to the lyrics site Genius's attempt mentioned elsewh…

    Thanks Abishek! I do think Netvyne addresses the need to interact with others on a website as mentioned. In fact, this particular need-gap was something we've thought about, and we…

    I hadn't heard of this one before, I'll read up on it! The Netvyne extension does have a live chat tab as well by the way; its definitely a different experience with live chat vs c…

    Yup, cold start problem is one of our main challenges, and we'll be trying out a variety of approaches to solve it. Actually the Netvyne extension can be used in conjunction with F…

    I think it shares some similarities! Netvyne has more of a focus on the leaving/reading of comments as you browse.

    Dissenter is indeed one of the many predecessors! I'm glad you share the sentiment that its worth exploring; if you do get a chance to try it out, let us know what you think/would …
