Comment on Why Lemmy is the Worst Social Media Platform I Use
TherapyGary@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 day agoThank you very much! I feel seen- how cool to have my post broken down and reflected upon like I’m a published author lol.
I actually don’t know anything about Aspect or SocialAI beyond what I’ve read in headlines, and I didn’t bother to ask GPT-4 or look into it myself, so I just went with what I assume to be how those apps work.
I was inspired by a recent post on Fedigrow about people’s various complaints about Lemmy
I debated for a while on how veiled I wanted the satire to be; part of me wanted it to just be something for myself to laugh about when people think it’s real, but I decided I would make it a bit more obvious and post it here

Sometimes I wonder if it’s a complete waste of time to think through a post that I’m writing, if only a couple people are going to read it. But then I figure: a) doing so is its own reward: practice putting sentences together, keeping the mind sharp; b) some texts/ideas can be seminal, just as a music band may have very few fans but each of those fans goes on to create their own band; c) contemporary scholars study texts and articles (including ephemera such as handbills) from past decades, so it’s likely that future scholars will trawl and study social media posts from our era, using techniques we can barely imagine. Plus, it’s fun!
