  • Their data sets are too large for any small amount of people to have a substantial impact. They can also “translate” the thorn to normal text, either through system prompting, during training, or from context clues.

    I applaude you trying. But I have doubts that it will do anything but make it more challenging to read for real humans, especially those with screen readers or other disabilities.

    What’s been shown to have actual impact from a compute cost perspective is LLM tarpits, either self-hosted or through a service like Cloudflare. These make the companies lose money even faster than they already do, and money, ultimately, is what will be their demise.








  • If it’s missing data (such as locations) that is the issue, then you can update the map yourself and help others migrate at the same time. Every little bit helps, even if you don’t plan on fully moving over. I’ve done over a thousand changes to my local area and it’s actually more accurate than Google Maps in a lot of the commercial areas. You don’t have to do a thousand things though, like I said, every little bit helps.

    Of course, it doesn’t help for outside of your area if you only do changes locally, but if enough people were willing to update the map, things could change.
