    I have no fucking clue what you just think you said.

    But the dumb act doesn’t work after you’ve demonstrated the ability to construct sentences. Then again, you stuck with it long enough that maybe it’s not an act…

    I’m just as willing to slug it out down in the verbal mud, as I am with actual logic. Just please, don’t bore me. You’ve pulled the intentional misinterpretation trick thrice, and now you’re on to nonsensical jabs veiled in attempts at being profound.

    Better material, man!

      I know. That’s what makes it is so funny.

      Just please, don’t bore me.

      It is up to you to ensure you are enjoying your alone time. Have you considered a social activity with other humans if the solitude of writing messages to a computer program is no longer doing it for you?

        It is. But you’re assuming I don’t have more than just the one hobby, that I do this instead of socializing, and that I don’t cut my losses the instant something loses my interest. Which you’re beginning to do…

        You’re going for a rise with annoying word salad, and doing a slightly more verbose version of typing ROFLMAO. That’s not interesting.

          I assume nothing about you, nor do I give you any thought at all. A solitary activity has no reason to pay mind to anyone who may be peering through the bushes. My alone time is for me and me alone. Comments are written for my entertainment, not for anyone else’s.

          If the metaphorical creeper behind the bush gets a rise out of something he saw as I take in some alone time, good for him, I guess? I don’t know. I have no reason to pay attention to him or his motives. He too is doing his own solitary thing, and it is up to him to figure out how to enjoy his own alone time. If that’s what moves him, cool. Whatever floats one’s boat. It has nothing to do with me.

            You’re trying to claim that something which requires more than one participant is 100% about you. That the reasons of the others, matter to you not at all. That your “alone time” can still be alone time when it involves responding to others…

            Now that, is funny.

            If you only write for yourself, then I suggest you start a diary. Not open a fediverse account 🤣. If you’re not willing to engage in discussion in good faith, to help everyone involved gain a better understanding of reality, then you should simply fuck off and keep to yourself. Find your kicks without taking it from others.

            You talk about it as if you’re using a pair of headphones. But really you’re walking around with a boombox, because the part that you really enjoy, is annoying others. Not the music.

            Like I said, I’m down to slug it out on any level you might like, I really am here for the genuine discussion. But I didn’t bring us down here, I simply followed.

              It is possible that the software requires more than one participant to function, or perhaps it uses an LLM under the hood (more likely given how frequently hallucinations seem to occur), or who knows what else – there is really no indication of how it works at that level, nor would it matter. The specific implementation details are beyond the user’s concern. It is quite true that the tool is a micro-journaling platform which provides additional prompts to spark one’s imagination for additional entires into the diary. And being a micro-journaling platform, it is designed around solitary use.

                Cool theory bro, unfortunately the fediverse pre-dates the prevalence of LLMs. The vast majority of the users that you engage on Lemmy, other fediverse platforms, and their instances, are people, not bots. Of course there’s are some bots, but they are easy to spot for anyone who has actually tried conversing with LLMs and been aware of that. They only fool people who don’t know how they behave.

                If you think the fediverse is intended for “solitary use” with fake interactions provided by LLMs, then you are truly lost, and far more of a conspiracy nut than I would have guessed.

                We’re done.

                  It is likely that they are people, but that is, again, just an implementation detail. One does not come to Lemmy – or the Fediverse in general – to engage with people, they come to write their own thoughts for themselves as a solitary activity. When one seeks to engage with people, they go to where people are found, not where there are anonymous usernames that might be people, but who knows, or cares?

                  We never started. My alone time has always been just me.

                    ActivityPub is not a note-taking app with AI assist tools. That you would suggest it is, and use it as if it is, is fucking idiotic.

                    I come to the fediverse to talk to people, and to have my ideas and ideals challenged, because it is the platform that most closely makes the trade-offs I would make, for a platform on which to do so.

                    Other platforms are so lop-sidedly parasocial due to their algorithm/engagement driven feeds, I’d argue they no longer offer any interaction of value. Yes, the people are there, but the forum of human society, is not.

                    And if you really think that having engaged with me has left nothing of what I’ve said in your mind, you are truly delusional. Few people realize it in the moment, when the first seeds of new ideas take root in their thoughts. Even if they do not bloom, unless you are completely devoid of internal monologue, you will continue to process this exchange for a while yet, after it ends. We have started. There is nothing solitary about it.

                    But I suspect you are using that word to mean something it doesn’t. You’re trying to point out that everyone acts for their own reasons, as if that’s relevant. Of course they do, but it is not.

                    And even if the majority of users on a platform are machine, that still does not allow you to act in a purely self-centered manner. The fact that any given interaction may be with a real person, must inform your behaviour. You should care. That you don’t, is concerning. That concern is why I am going to such lengths to try and provoke introspection in you. You have some growing up to do, and you may claim to be unaffected. Why would admit to anything? But you aren’t, only the truly stupid can engage like you have, and not have the exchange sink in at all. You did play at being stupid, which is an infantile tactic that took you three comments to abandon, but you clearly are not.
