Yeah I guess many skilled sports have some unique slang for a beginner or someone with no clue. Grom is another weird one for surf/skate.

100% of people who say shit like this in reference to Norway don’t know that Norway isn’t a member of the EU.

You’ll have a second kimchi awakening when you switch to home made :)

I’ve never seen store bought that can compare, barring actually being in Korea.

For weight, they forgot to add: if it’s for advertising a price, it’s in $/lbs (though you will be charged in $/kg). The butcher knows damn well that steaks advertised at $15/lbs sell better than steaks at $33/kg.

It’s a friendly transaction between users purely out of the desire to help, and leaving it available to those who have the same question.

Further, it’s a transaction that Reddit facilitated out of their own pocket. I think people are being extremely petty about it. It’s best to just mourn and move on, we can still appreciate the golden years that Reddit gave us.

I agree, it seems very petty to me. If you don’t like the direction just leave, what’s the point of trying to burn it down? Especially given how much we all got out of it throughout the golden years. I say just mourn and move on.

I do not think it’s fair to assume that everyone came to lemmy for the same reasons as you. I for one came because I didn’t like the decisions they were making, not because I had any strong feelings about the ethics of those decisions.

Yeah, no offense to the admins who I’m sure are just trying to do their users right, but stuff like this is making me see the value of running my own instance, or at perhaps finding a more hands-off one. It’s weird to me that instance admins (or popular votes) make the decisions about what content I get to have access to.

I guess browser extension would be well suited to add account-switching/aggregating. Likewise mobile apps.

Not trying to insert my own opinion but I believe it’s because the core Lemmy devs actually admin and/or are involved in said instance. Well verify for yourself but somebody said it’s hosted from the same IP as lemmy.ml. And the core devs comment and moderation histories are public for all to see.
