It's strange to see the same person first to rant about how the Web is f... broken beyond repair; then to conclude somehow that gemini (of all things!) is striving to repair the Web; and now to rant about how gemini is failing at that supposed repair work.

Maybe it would help if people understood/remembered that the web != internet, and Gemini is not trying to ”fix” the web in any way. There’s great value in having a simple and comfortable (as in low cognitive load) alternative that’s designed for a small number of use cases and not much else.

I don’t think the web can be fixed at this point. It’s barreling toward an ever more complex future, with no incentives to reverse the trend. · 2 years ago
