  • It depends on your city.

    In the Netherlands you'd probably be laughed at for wearing a helmet.

    The bicycle infrastructure makes it so safe here, kids cycle alone to school across busy roads from the age of like 7

    I recommend watching the YT channel Not-Just-Bikes it's fascinating and I wish more counties were built like the Netherlands

  • Something being a crime doesn't stop a movement, it could fuel it.

    IMO we shouldn't beat the Afd etc. By making it illegal to be far right, we should beat them by understanding why people support them and by having meaningful conversations with those people and addressing their issues

  • This is important.

    Else a Afd2.0 would pop up over night, with many of their supporters angered.

  • Get disposable virtual credit cards.

    I just delete my credit card right after I sign up, and then I don't have to remember anything.

    It's also much easier to unsubscribe you use a new card for each merchant, and if you no longer want to use amazon just delere the card. No need to go jump through 10x hoops to cancel

  • I hope to see people like Lewis Rossmann erc. Start posting there

  • Using a barcode username is nice for being anonymous

    Eg.

    IlIIIllIIl

    It's a combination of lower case L and upper case I

  • I'd also like to know

  • I had a look at voyager, and it's UX is perfect for new users. It would be great to get the web to that point https://photon.lemmy.world/ seems quite good, maybe that should be default.

  • Yes it does depend on the front end.

    But that's the thing its not the default front end.

    Most users will give up before discovering Photon.

    The default experience should be very smooth and require little to no effort and thinking. Like what everyone has gotten used to

  • This will keep happening until Lemmy etc. Have good UX

    For the vast majority of users the UX just sucks for most of the fediverse

    We need to push for or fund better UX

  • Yes, Afrikaans is my mother tongue

  • Sharks are older than trees

  • Same I'd like to see the south African community on here grow

  • What app do you use?

  • I'm new to Lemmy and quite tech savvy.

    I'd like to get more people I know to join, but the standard UI really wasn't nice. Thanks for showing me Photon, I like it so much more!!

    I'm using Sync on mobile, I miss the Upvote & Downvote bar, any idea how to get it back?
