The web version is very inferior to the desktop one. I had to use it at work and it was a very frustrating experience, e.g. missing many conditional formatting options.
Awesome progress, can't wait until Illustrator, InDesign and Photosop can all run well on Linux ✨ Adobe's lack of support is like 70% the reason why I haven't switched to Linux yet.
not sure what OP meant, but it reminded me of the forced assimilation of peoples in a colonial setting, where a potential scenario is that
the grandparents speak their native language fluently, and the dominating language almost not at all
the parents speak both the native and the dominating language, but badly
the kids speak the dominating language fluently, and the native language almost not at all
So in that case the parents can be seen as not having a proper native language, because they have two languages they can sorta make work, but can't fully express nuance and complex thought in either.
This, I follow a single Reddit sub on RSS because it just doesn't exist on Lemmy 🤷 And in general, communities for many niche topics or smaller countries are nonexistent. But the conversations are much better here, so I hang out more on Lemmy nowadays :)
Interesting, I had my 9GAG phase around 2011-12. Never really used Digg, just saw the front page a couple times, then started dabbling in Reddit in 2015, then Lemmy in 2023 with the blackout protests. (I almost said those achieved nothing, but I think that's probably when most current Lemmy users joined, so 🤷)
It's not fully reversible. I had it done with the "gun" method as a young child, and I spent years without using earrings and the hole never completely closed.
haha I ran into this too, someone changed the title of my question on one of their non-programming boards - I was so pissed, I never went back to that particular board (it was especially annoying because it was a quite personal question)
I'm happy to see a bit of a renaissance of forums in the last few years. Quite a few open source projects now run forums built on the Discourse engine (open-source, can be self-hosted for free). I was kinda sceptical at first, they look so different from the BBCode forums I was used to, but over time came to appreciate the features that drag the forum format into the 21st century.
I hope an increasing number of projects come to realise the drawbacks of Discord, namely that you keep years' worth of information on someone else's centralised platform, and it's very difficult to find past information even for members of the server, and impossible from the outside. I look at a handful of Discord channels daily, but had to mute some because users keep asking the same questions every two days...
Hear hear, it was the hostile atmosphere that pushed me away from Stack Exchange years before LLMs were a thing. That very clear impression that the site does not exist to help specific people, but a vague public audience, and the treatment of every question and answer is subjugated to that. Since then I just ask/answer questions on platforms like Lemmy, Reddit, Discord, or the Discourse forums ran by various organisations, it's a much more pleasant experience.
yeah, I sometimes thank past me when I don't have to deal with hassle avoided by my past actions (even if it's mundane stuff like washing the dishes yesterday xd)
