Google money perhaps? I don't know if the funding is public knowledge. But seeing as it apparently doesn't block ads sucking up to silicon valley seems appropriate.
Isn't that like step one for a privacy focused browser?
Yeah, language can be changed by a (conscious?) design decision. But whether that change is necessary is up to debate and just because you could doesn't mean you should.
Some users will learn the terms and some won't but what I mean is that it's a hindrance either way. And defense isn't "that's language" the defense is "that's my design vision".
I hope we get a chance to customize to our liking at some point - but not like it matters that much to me anyway since I'm mostly mobile. I just hope my rif-like app comes soon enough.
Super strange though to complain from Reddit the lack of customization.
That's not because of language evolving with the need for same thing from different places or nickname that's grown out of a subgroup. It's by design, kbin (afaik) is a fork of Lemmy and decided they want to use a different name - maybe because they wanted to differentiate themselves from Lemmy, I'm not sure actually why. Certainly they didn't take into account both Lemmy and kbin growing side by side both profiting from other's success. Either way, it's a failure of design for the fediverse, time will tell if it actually matters though.
(You can sure argue language works by assigning word to describe thing but usually it's meant that meanings can grow and change with time with the population.)
And I'd argue sublemmy thing is a thing at all because community-magazine thing isn't that obvious. You never heard anyone in Reddit call them anything else than subreddits or subs.
Wait no yeah, I'm just stupid. I thought it meant the mom meant that OP wasn't able to do it because they were assigned female at birth and wouldn't be able to open a jar. Hence, mom not accepting op.
You mean a trans man?
I don't understand why you'd be glad the same stuff has different name depending where you are accessing it from.
And it's kinda whatever, not that hard to grasp concept of magazine=community but it's a hindrance especially to newcomers. Maybe just call them magazine-community or something to avoid confusion.
Tbh its to be expected.
Feels like Spez won't be taking this one to the chin. Let's just see how deep the ship will sink with its captain.
So what they're saying is that their nsfw system isn't up to snuff. Maybe focus on fixing that?
