@froztbyte @ZBennoui @reflex @ddelemeny also, if you were behaving like this towards me in a bar, as in hassling me for direct attention, during my personal time, well this feels like a much more justifiable reason to have you ejected vs the situation you mentioned earlier. Do you understand?
@jaffathecake @froztbyte @ZBennoui @reflex @ddelemeny this is a very thudding and obvious attempt to distract from answering the actual question
you need to be more subtle to pull this one off

Nope, it's not the same.@wariat @fabio @firefoxwebdevs sure!

@froztbyte @ZBennoui @reflex @ddelemeny ok you've absolutely had enough of my attention.

@reflex @froztbyte @ddelemeny I don't believe I described Fedi as something negative. What did I miss?
@jaffathecake @reflex @froztbyte @ddelemeny that part where you wrote that bringing up concerns of fedi users would have been a waste of your time.

@jaffathecake @reflex @froztbyte @ZBennoui @ddelemeny you should have seen this one time I ordered a burger and the waiter served me a salad and I said I ordered a burger but he kept talking about vegetarians and how the plate was designed based on feedback from a poll about the best colours with the options being brown, grey, and
️ but every time I asked about the burger the waiter told me that vegetarians don't like to eat meat -

@wojtek
@wariat @fabio @firefoxwebdevs Because it exposes users to a wide variety of technical and cognitive hazards, has a significant labor rights and ecological impact, is changing the structure of public discourse in ways that are broadly incompatible with democracy, and represents a fundamental change in what the piece of software the users are installing does, ontologically. Why do you think it's justified forcing that change on anyone who doesn't notice it's there or understand why they might not want it? -

@antares @Orb2069 @jaffathecake @froztbyte @ddelemeny If it were AI it would be telling us what we would like to hear....

@firefoxwebdevs @ArneBab and also, not only "block" instead of disable, but "enhancements" instead of features

Stop portraying Mastodon users as the "anti-AI crazies".
Instead, ask yourself: "What is the relation between Mastodon users & Firefox?"
The answer:
An overwhelming number of Mastodon users used to be your champions.
They are tech people who used to recommend Firefox to the normies in their life. A crowd of mini-influencers, recommending your product.
And I don't understand why you go out of your way to alienate exactly these people.
I was one of those people that USED TO recommend Firefox.

> are you under a directive that explicitly told you not to do that?
No.
> Or perhaps under some implicit kind of situation (e.g. “I know $manager won’t listen”) which made you not even consider that?
No, but a poll that gives me the evidence to say "hey, you know that place that has a strong representation of people who don't like AI? They don't like AI." did not seem like a good use of my time.

"hey, you know that place that has a strong representation of people who don't like AI? They don't like AI."
---I think you find that's called "the majority of the world population on the web that doesn't have a vested interest of profiting from the very flawed impression LLM AI is good at what the tech bros are trying to use it for". Why do you think nobody wants

Microslop Co-Pilot? Why do you think people are moving from Windows to Linux? Why do you think that OpenAI has woeful conversion to paid customers? Why do you think people are moving from Firefox to Vivaldi, that have stated they won't put AI in their products.
