@upol OpenAI is not alone in taking advantage of vulnerable populations by paying them pennies to read & label horrific content. Google, Meta, & Amazon have employed ppl in refugee camps to label their data.

dear software comrade @arda just started his self hosted writefreely instance at @[email protected]

👏👏👏

are there any other active writefreely blogs out there?

(or actually how does the discoverability work? 🤔)

Oh wow. I know there have been a ton of debates and discussion about quote tweet functionality and whether it's good or bad (I'm on the "I think it would be good" side), @hildabast has put together a VERY detailed review of all research on the topic. Her take based on that: it is not a major vector of abuse, as some claim. https://absolutelymaybe.plos.org/2023/01/12/quote-tweeting-over-30-studies-dispel-some-myths/
