Checking out iOS mail clients and it’s depressing. Either they scrape your email to sell data, or your contacts, or their servers fetch mail and store your password… whatever happened to an email app talking to a mail server directly? I guess when the app is free, you’re the 😔

Totally agree, & I don't want this to sound like criticism. It's been a lot of fun, and I appreciate your work immensely. I'm just eager for my friends to do it too, but know that's not currently feasible for many of them. If there's anything I can do to help, please let me know.

4/ In short, the process to “own your content” is currently in the chasm, and won’t cross over into mass adoption until we make it *way* easier. That said, I like this setup a lot, and am encouraged that it’s a thing that is now possible.

3. MILLION. SUBSCRIBERS. WOW! I’m honestly blown away. Just a Canadian kid making videos on YouTube with zero intention of ever having people watch them or care about them. This community that WE built, is strong, inspiring, creative, relentless. I’m so honoured to have been given your time and I will continue to earn it. Thank you. ❤️

I feel like if I explained what I'm doing you'd understand why I'm so limited, but I really only need to store a single thing and the simplest solution at this point if mLab doesn't work for it is to write my own service on my own db 😂

@aaronpk It’s actually a really interesting hybridg eng/AI approach: they build an ML model from past Zoom interactions to create a simulacrum of each user which speaks on their behalf. What you’re hearing is just a generative model of the person you’re “talking” to saying what they’d be likely to say in real life; same on their end. It’s *incredibly* bandwidth-efficient. The protocol just sends a tiny presence packet with your user ID once per second to keep your avatar talking.

Won’t be surprised to see it. Societal trust for technology feels dwindling. Software runs the world. Those without that knowledge appear intimidated. What entity has the highest vested interest in keeping people calm? Oh, the regulations are coming.
