It could be a difficult battle for them to fight. We'd just have to make it too costly. Make them go hunt down all the relays. Scatter them everywhere. A $5 ESP32 isn't a good relay but they still have to hunt it down and that

I've read this three times now and still don't understand you. Do you think people don't update their software? Are you just counting every update as people happy about the kill switch? There'll be so much noise in that

Sure, but then the people complaining would need to recognize that that's not happening. All the AI features are local models. The only thing not local is that side window you can open that can connect to a chatbot. It's also easy

There's also a side window you can open that can connect to a chatbot. There's translation (on device). Also semantic history search.

Most people aren't vocal. Most people who are vocal aren't representative of users. Many vocal people aren't even users. Don't get me wrong, I turn off telemetry, but you're acting like it's easy to get that in

The other thing people can do is install Firefox and use it. An uptick in user share also serves as a metric to reinforce the move. Let's be honest, most people complaining are using chrome or some flavor. But current Firefox users cou

I think some people frame Yak shaving as a bad thing but I'm not sure it always is, and often even it is it is bad because you're resolving debt. The example with Hal is funny, repeatable (I share it frequently), but also the task

Fwiw it works in zsh and I believe ksh (haven't checked). There's not many people that run csh, tcsh, sh, ksh, or even fish. I could be more pedantic but I'll trade for practicality. I'm sure we could even do better than

Yeah that's a good addition. I think often the words we use can really make things more confusing. Like I hate when people say invertible but in reference to a function that isn't bijective. Why not say reversible? (No complaints
