    @uastronomer An addendum to this: if you ever take the time and bother to "download your profile" from these enshittified services, you will discover just how hilariously wrong they are, a disturbing thought considering this is now 'evidence' that AI could use to bring goons to your door! Oh, all your LLM chats too. Even those you 'deleted'.
