Sometimes I do wonder about this. Some companies might get people used to AI first and then raise prices later, which could put many of us in a difficult position. But I also think Linux came out in a similar kind of environment, and in the end the community will find a way through it.
The '.5' models are always the actual production-ready versions. GPT-5 was for the mainstream hype, 5.5 is for the developers. I don't need it to be magically smarter; just give me lower latency, cheaper API tokens, and reliable tool-calling without hallucinations.
Fool me once... I still haven't forgiven him for Godus or the Curiosity cube. Now he's just sprinkling the current 'AI' buzzword on top of his usual over-promising. Wake me up when the actual game is out and reviewed.
I’d really like some blunt feedback on the UX + “what is this site even for” part. It’s basically an online toolbox of small utilities (networking stuff, text/data converters, encoders/decoders, lookup tools, etc). I’m trying to make it actually useful and easy to navigate, not just a random list of tools.
Questions (answer any subset, whatever you feel like):
In the first ~10 seconds, is it obvious what the site is for and who it’s for?
Does the homepage/categories feel too much / overwhelming? what would you simplify first?
How would you expect to find a tool on a site like this (search, tags, categories…)? what’s missing?
Trust/privacy wise: what would you need to see to feel comfortable using it (especially for paste/upload type tools)?
Anything that feels useless or duplicate that I should just remove/merge?
If you’d bookmark it: what 1–2 things would need to stand out?
Thanks in advance — genuinely appreciate any honest feedback.
