  • Shorts fucking suck. It keeps recommending to me exactly four types of videos:

    • stuff I have already watched, liked and commented – sometimes a few minutes prior
    • videos I’m wildly uninterested with and systematically mark as irrelevant or instantly skip, yet it keeps bringing up videos of the same subject
    • very old old “news” shorts
    • stuff of people I’m subscribed to – which is fine, just not what makes great algorithms

    Meanwhile, in a very short time, tiktok has managed to make me discover communities I had no idea I’d like to watch content from, while subtly managing to stop showing me some of the content from those communities I don’t enjoy












  • Using a mac daily for work, no it doesn’t. Some built in software features keep fucking up, external device or not. Like the “pause music” button, which stopped working entirely on my mac no matter if you press it on the builtin or external keyboard, the multi desktop which keep fucking up and putting apps on top of other apps that are fullscreen, making them barely usable…

    We agree on the external device part though, it can decide to stop working with stuff you used for months for no good reason

    All this on an M2 pro that came out a year ago
