One of the more disturbing things I read this year was the my boyfriend is AI subreddit.
I genuinely can't fathom what is going on there. Seems so wrong, yet no one there seems to care.
I worry about the damage caused by these things on distressed people. What can be done?
I am (surprisingly for myself), a left-wing on this issue.
I've seen a significant amount (tens) of women routinely using "AI boyfriends",.. not actually boyfriends but general purpose LLMs like DeepSeek, for what they consider to be "a boyfriend's contribution to relationship", and I'm actually quite happy that they are doing it with a bot rather than with me.
Like, most of them watch films/series/anime together with those bots (I am not sure the bots are fed the information, I guess they just use the context), or dump their emotional overload at them, and ... I wouldn't want to be at that bot's place.
Everything was good enough in Windows 7.

The README for that project mentions IDLE, but not CONDSTORE.
So what happens if you lose your connection to the server? How do you get up to date with the current state?
mbsync does it.
It's separation of concerns, the monitor only checks that something has changed, while mbsync does the synchronisation.
Well, it says its bidirectional, so perhaps you could run two instances pointed at the same local maildir, but at different IMAP servers?
You can do the same with a local cyrus.
This is where it starts. A bunch of parasites are sensing their rent being taken away.
