    You don't need to type on a hard surface (but anyway, most people tap away on their phone screens for hours in a day). You can type on an octopus if you want. Anything can be a pro…

    this crops up in my feed every now and then and it has vastly superior perf vs. ØAI’s ChatGPT iOS app or anything else I’ve found. truly outstanding. are you planning on developing…

    Don’t make users register/login before at least an introductory landing page flow. There’s currently no indication of what exactly I’m signing up for. Ideally also allow immediate …
