I won’t be using these features, but I’m not sure there’s cause for concern. The implementation seems very sensible and legitimately privacy-centric. The LLM runs locally and is meant as an very basic email proofreader. The crypto wallet is a likely an extension of the password management tech they’ve already developed, with transaction features that some people care about.

I can see why some people want these features, and I’m glad there are new alternatives.

I expected to roll my eyes at this article but it’s actually quite compelling and well written. The Kagi website’s lack of nuanced privacy discussion already turned me off, and now I’m just going to pretend the service doesn’t exist.

Woah. I assume Thunderbolt will still have latency benefits. For example, we’re not going to have wireless eGPUs, surely? I hope I’m wrong, because wireless PCIe lanes would be amazing.

For sure! But I don’t think non-advanced users should be enabling 2FA right now. It’s puzzling that Lemmy pushed the feature in its current state to production.

It may not be wise to enable 2FA until Lemmy fixes the implementation. It’s currently very easy to get permanently locked out of your account, through no fault of your own. Especially if you don’t have an email address linked to your account.
