101 million is too small for such an epic error.

Compared to Telegram’s 1-billion user base, it’s still a roundoff error.

In their defence, Abby is kind of thicc.

Nobody they know is on those platforms.

Nobody is on Signal either.

Signal was always better

I love the premise of Signal, but there are too many red flags. Some of my issues are:

• Hostility against 3rd party clients
• US-based legal entity
• Too much tied with Google libs on android
• No official Fdroid support
• Open source claims are undermined by code blackouts from time to time.

qwen2.5 just came out, and looks amazing. You can try it with ollama.

I trust Chinese hardware more than I trust American ones.

aya based llms are extremely powerful. same with qwen

T5 is a very mediocre LM. why do people keep using it?

quite the opposite. Lora’s are very effective against catastrophic forgetting, and full finetuning is very dangerous (but also much more powerful).
