techrights-newsStupid thing to say: "I'm wondering if Gemini would grow in popularity as AI improves. It's one of the few places on the internet that's (mostly) humans and without commercial pressure." gemini://bbs.geminispace.org/u/Haze/49051Sep 28 16:53

techrights-news"The prevalence of slop _everywhere_ is what drove me to seek out nicer, more human spaces and that’s how I found Gemini just a couple of weeks ago so I assume others will follow the same path. Hard to know if more is better!"Sep 28 16:54
techrights-news"We really want growth of quality rather than number of users. AI and dead internet theory can interest people in gemini, but they can also get away if there is nothing to keep them here. It's a good opportunity: targetted advertisment and stuff to keep them from moving out would be a strategy."Sep 28 16:54
techrights-news"Hmm, why would improvements in AI increase the popularity of Gemini? The slop that is _**most**_ of the modern web probably can't get that much worse, and if anything, better AI will make the slop, perhaps, better."Sep 28 16:54
techrights-news"The Gemini protocol, as it currently stands, won't support a very large number of users. It lacks even the most basic metadata needed for scaleability, and it's difficult to implement an effective search crawler. My feeling is that most regular users are pretty happy with it being this way."Sep 28 16:55
