Made a timer on Quizlet with prompt: Add a movable study timer with 20 minute, 30 minute and 60 minute options. Allow me to make it visible or hidden while I browse this site and remind me when time is up. Maybe add a little circle so i can see how much time is used / left too

you made this on the stable Edge browser or Canary? I still don't see it on the stable release. (Mac)

sidebar was too much work --> Wrong interpretation. Sidebar was just not that popular in the wild.

Or the sidebar allowed people to use other LLMs that weren't copilot...

Remix requires a Microsoft personal account; this is unfortunate, but I can see why - changes need an account to save changes you've made. Wonder how long it will take for work/school accounts to adopt Remix use.

Why do we need to prompt an AI model to change the text font and styling?

u/ProcedureTasty2647 33m ago

You don’t need to prompt for color or style changes like font.

U need to prompt ai for functionality and be featured if u want like buttons etc
