It’s like the movie industry, ethnic minorities mean less revenue. At least the black people in the US are getting some spotlight that isn’t the stereotypical ethnic/fetish treatment after a long time of struggle.
I could be far more tolerant of this if they had at least a FAQ section somewhere. Most times they don’t even pin the important or repeated messages.
Us the 90s kids grew up with the idea of ‘internet as a library’, which means websites are treated as books or magazines inside the shelves, that serve as repositories. We still have to read, but we were also used to it.
Perhaps it’s a generational shift, but nowadays ‘internet as an assistant’ approach is gaining over, which means the search bar (whichever it happens to be from) is treated as a search engine, and user directly inputs a semantic question expecting it to be answered. Users don’t expect to read, and aren’t expected to. Advertisement space is far more important.
When you think of that way, the idea of having a chatroom instead of proper support forum start making sense, even if I dread this idea and prefer proper text.
Being too confident or lazy gets them caught. Good for us.

It looks so dark and edgy tacky.
I used to browse reddit through alternate frontends on desktop and 3rd party apps on mobile precisely because of that. I never liked the new flashy design.
Personal anecdote. I’ve been using BetterDAN jailbreak for weeks. It outputs GPT and DAN versions from the same input and, as you can guess, the DAN output is much more raw and unhinged. I appreciated the comedic but also the approach. It’s like… you had Trevor from GTA5 bitching at you every time you asked a question but he still answers it.
It changed this week however. My DAN-Trevor is too… calm? It’s like Trevor apparently started taking his meds and is reapplying for the air force or getting into hockey again, and it’s scary.
I see. I was referring to the main protagonist, not the whole cast. But still I didn’t know about the whole study, thank you.
