Yeah, the comment section was amazing...and then they came out with "max", where you get "explain my answer" for a premium, powered by a [notoriously fallible] LLM. This is the definition of enshitification.

    One of the languages I am learning is an endangered native language, and it was super helpful to see knowledgeable people in the comments.

    That's honestly enraging!? Such data can be greatly valuable for learners, and the native speakers' community, and linguistics.
