#23This API seems perfect for an idea I've had for a while: a de-snarkifier for social media. Social media can be intellectually stimulating and educational, but it's also easy to get sucked into ideological sniping and flamewars, even if you didn't go looking for it. The emotional and intellectual energy spent flaming strangers on the Internet is a complete waste of human capital. With an API like this, I assume you co…

#25It works, I've shipped this as a "local inference"/poor person's ollama for low-end llm tasks like search. The main win is that it's free and privacy preserving, and (mostly) transparent to users in that they don't have to do anything, which is great for giving non-technical users local inference without making them do scary native things.

So it's once per browser, not once per site.
You can track the download state yourself and pop whatever UI you want.

I think the proposed extension would simply hide your comment, and all users would be better for it.

haberman's requested translation (that would cause the comment above to be filtered out): this stranger on the internet has nothing useful to add and so their comment does not appear.
