requiring a user to own a PC in order to sideload apps (with adb) would, in fact, count as blocking sideloading, albeit partially. so i don't think that's the right limit

if someone is unwilling to pay for access to an entire collection of articles, i'd find it very unlikely that they pay for a single article. unless it's an outrageously low price like 10 cents or something

i really don't understand. what's the point of having an LLM comment on random HN posts? like, i get doing that somewhere like reddit because commenting brings karma and legitimacy to an account, which can later be used for astrot

probably not, there's a few comma splices in there
