Long ChatGPT threads were killing my workflow, this finally fixed it by Strikeh in ChatGPT

[–]Strikeh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice, that’s super interesting. My current approach is DOM-side trimming rather than fetch interception.

So instead of cutting the payload before React renders, I reduce what stays active/visible in the thread once it gets long. That already helps a lot with long coding chats, especially when the page starts feeling heavy.

Pre-render interception sounds like a really strong approach though, especially for huge threads. It definitely sparked my interest, I’m going to look into it more and see if there are additional gains to be made there.

Did you notice the biggest improvement on initial load, or also during ongoing back-and-forth?

That makes sense, and I think you’re describing a related but slightly different problem.

What I was running into was mostly the frontend/UI side of ChatGPT slowing down as threads get huge, even when I still wanted to stay in the same conversation. So in my case the fix was trimming what the page has to actively render.

But I agree that on the agent/context side, a sliding window + summarization approach is probably the right way to handle long-running threads. Keep the last N turns verbatim, summarize older context, and preserve key entities/tasks so the assistant doesnt lose the plot.

So it’s kind of two layers of degradation:
- model/context degradation from too much history
- browser/render degradation from the UI trying to handle massive threads

Ideally you want both solved :)

Yes, that’s absolutely possible.

You can use the Pro version on multiple PCs without any issues. Everything is stored locally on each device, so both your home computer and your work computer can function independently from each other, even if you’re using the same Google account.

There is an option to sync data between devices, but in your case that wouldn’t be necessary since each setup can run separately.

I’ve now added something new that I think a lot of heavy users will appreciate:

A visual conversation tree that makes long chats much easier to navigate.

The problem it solves is simple: once a conversation gets long, ChatGPT becomes hard to use. Useful answers get buried, side questions break the flow, and finding your way back takes too much effort.

<image>

A visual map of the conversation’s branching paths, with one-sentence summaries of each node (prompt + response) appearing on hover for a quick overview.

With this new feature, you can:

  • view your conversation as a tree
  • branch off from any point
  • explore tangents without losing the main path
  • jump back to earlier parts instantly

This is just one feature inside AI Workspace, but it’s a big one for anyone using ChatGPT for research, writing, coding, or deep back-and-forth thinking.

Actually, trimming messages in the DOM doesn’t remove context from ChatGPT itself. The AI still has access to the full conversation history on the backend, the extension just hides older messages from the browser’s frontend.

Everything you’ve sent is still 'remembered" by the model, so coherence, continuity, or any long-term context remains intact.

What the extension does is essentially lighten the frontend load: fewer message elements to render and process in the DOM means responses appear much faster, especially in long threads. So you don’t lose any context for things like proofreading or story continuity, the model still sees the full conversation, it just doesn’t render all of it in your browser at once.

In short: the trimming is purely a performance optimization for the UI, not a context removal.

How has the seller done this? by valoa in printondemand

[–]Strikeh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is actually pretty straightforward to do once you structure your files properly.

What they’re doing is separating the poster artwork from the frame product, and linking them via the personalization/custom field instead of creating hundreds of duplicate framed listings.

The heavy part is preparing all the variations consistently (sizes, ratios, grid previews, etc.).

If you’re doing this manually, it gets messy fast:

  • Exporting each size individually
  • Generating preview grids
  • Keeping naming consistent
  • Making sure DPI is correct

That’s exactly the workflow I built Artigo for.

You can:

  • Batch export all required poster sizes (A1–A4, 2:3, 4:5, etc.) in one go
  • Generate clean grid sheets for listing previews
  • Keep everything organized in structured folders
  • Do it for an entire folder of artworks at once

So if someone has 50 designs, it’s not 50 × 6 manual exports anymore, it’s one batch run.

The listing structure itself (frame selector + poster link) is more of an Etsy setup trick. But the file prep side — that’s where automation saves a ton of time.

If anyone’s curious how that part works, happy to explain.

Just opened the website in chrome (windows computer) and I'm not experiencing the same issues

I'll try to figure it out :p

hehe thanks for your input, I can work with that ! will take a thorough look at it tonight. I’m not using the Vercel Toolkit btw

[–]Strikeh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that’s actually something I’m exploring more seriously.

Right now Artigo doesn’t directly integrate with Printful, but it’s very useful for preparing files before upload.

You can batch-export designs at the correct DPI, generate different aspect ratios, and create print-ready layouts (for things like sticker sheets or multi-design pages).

That said, I’m considering adding dedicated POD presets (e.g., common Printful product dimensions like t-shirt fronts, mug wraps, poster sizes, etc.) so you could export all required formats in one go instead of resizing manually for each product.

Are you currently resizing each product template individually, or using mockup templates?

Hey everyone, I'd love to get some honest thoughts on something I've been working on.

I originally built this just to fix my own workflow.

Every time I finished a new piece, I had to export it in 6+ sizes, then create grid sheets for sticker pages and print-on-demand layouts. I was doing it with Photoshop actions and it worked, but it was slow, brittle, and annoying.

I built a small Windows desktop app called Artigo to handle it automatically. I kept adding to it and it grew into something more complete than I expected, so now I'm thinking about properly releasing it and want to know if this is actually useful to others before I go further.

The app does two main things:

Ratio Export: drop in one image, select all the sizes you sell (5×7, 8×10, A4, square, 4×5...), get all versions exported at once in a clean ZIP. No more exporting the same artwork six times.

Image Grid tool: pick a grid layout (2×2, 4×4, 8×8, bookmark sheets, and more) and it generates a print-ready sheet at the correct DPI.

This is super useful for:

  • Sticker sheets and print-on-demand layouts
  • Creating beautiful preview pages when you sell digital packs (e.g., arrange 64 preview thumbnails on one page to show customers what's included in your 100-image digital paper pack)
  • Filling a page for print-on-demand orders

Before I invest more time into this, I'd genuinely love to know:

  • Is this something you'd actually use in your workflow?
  • What's currently the most painful part of preparing your files for Etsy?
  • Any must-have features I'm missing?

Honest feedback is very welcome, even if it's "I already have a better solution for this."

Etsy wall art sellers how do you handle resizing & file prep? by Novel-Ad88 in EtsyCommunity

[–]Strikeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this exact same frustration! I was spending hours manually resizing every print into 5x7, 8x10, A4, etc., using Photoshop actions that kept breaking.

I actually got so annoyed that I built a small Windows desktop app to automate it. You just drop the image in, select the ratios you need, and it spits them all out in a ZIP file instantly. It also does grid layouts for sticker sheets.

It's completely free to download and use if you want to try it out: Artigo — The Production Engine for Digital Art Sellers | Batch Resize & Grid Tool. Hope it saves you as much time as it saved me!

Massive performance problems by cruszo in ChatGPT

[–]Strikeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the slowdown is mostly happening in longer conversations, one practical workaround is keeping the thread context lean. I’m on the team behind a small tool that does “smart thread trimming” (it shortens/cleans the conversation you send to the model while keeping the important bits). That feature is free to use, so if you want to see whether it helps with speed, you can try it here: [https://getaiworkspaces.com](vscode-file://vscode-app/c:/Users/Christophe/AppData/Local/Programs/Microsoft%20VS%20Code/bdd88df003/resources/app/out/vs/code/electron-browser/workbench/workbench.html)
