I wish Mastodon would have a way to search for keywords only for "people I follow". Sometimes I know someone mentioned something, and I want to go back to that post, but I don't remember who or when, and it's hard to find. Is there such a thing?

Edit: I only use Android devices.

I often search for things like:

"panthers in:library"

e.g. to find this banger:
https://kolektiva.social/@Gigi/115900462017124196

Which will search for that word in things I have starred or favorited.

That's been good enough for me and encourages me to favorite almost everything I read.

(As
@rasterweb@mastodon.social likes to say: the star is how you mark a post as "read." :-)

Yeah, that doesn't always work. In this particular case I'm positive I'm trying to find something I did not interact with.

It might not be that hard to add such a feature. Since it is open source it could be done as a fork just for yourself if Pachli isn't interested in a PR.

Please don't use LLMs, they are just generating junk based on stolen labour and burning the planet.

@FediTips@social.growyourown.services @badnetmask@hachyderm.io @rasterweb@mastodon.social thought about this some more last night and this morning.

I saw a thread about the case against LLMs just now.

https://toot.cafe/@baldur/115916155006384225

I want to end up on the correct side of this issue. I started reading and following this topic.

After all, in order to be always right, the best strategy when you find yourself in the wrong is to quickly change your mind.

The challenge to "please don't use llms" will become a big challenge in software as more people use them

I agree they are burning the planet.

I agree, they have been trained on licensed material, which should not be used without attribution or paid licensing as required by the license.

And if we define junk as "statistical output that can't be trusted..." yes... that's true too.

You're right on all points.

As to your polite request to not use LLM's: You have always seemed reasonable, so how about this: I will henceforth never post a link like that again.
