The first one is correct as others have said, but the second one is not ambiguous enough to confuse anyone nor weird enough for anyone to bat an eye at, you're fine with either.

And that vast majority of people have for the most part chosen to continue using reddit rather than join a community where that is already the established norm and expect a change in ideology from the one that has been motivating its developers from day one.
No one using lemmy hated what lemmy is until a bunch of redditors flocked here. You're walking into forums built by communists used for years by communists to chat amongst each other and loudly complaining that these communists are allowed to stick around. There are a lot of other places on the internet that match your own ideology more closely, including reddit. Why stay here if you are that upset about the ideology this was and continues to be built on?
(or Lemmygrad or even ML)
Have you considered reaching out to the lemmy developers to point out that it's unreasonable for them to display links to the first two lemmy instances ever, the two that they created and administrate themselves, on their lemmy-joining portal? I think they'd be pretty receptive to that. Those instances are not at all representative of what lemmy is intended to be, and I certainly didn't join lemmy to see the kind of content they peddle.
When women talk about the problems they face, it's not helpful for you to go "That doesn't happen".
Your bias is showing, that's not a helpful response when anyone talks about their problems. Not just women.
Talking more seriously (but not that much more), I have some appreciation for being this brazen in the whole "I live in the real world and know women aren't shown disrespect out of nowhere by men they don't know, unlike you women with your lived experiences" shtick.
Yeah I don't have an answer for the thing you're actually asking (sorry) but this is 100% a reasonable take and honestly I fully approve of their approach here. Strawberry is licensed under the GPL, it is libre software and can be packaged in any FOSS operating system without issue. This adds to the free software community. They are explicitly only selling to people who don't value free software enough to use a free operating system.
And to be clear, I can guarantee that no one loses sleep over piracy of their GPL software, otherwise it wouldn't be GPL. I see it more as a way for the devs to wash their hands of troubleshooting for operating systems they don't want to care about - anyone on windows/mac who cares enough about strawberry to pay gets listened to, but otherwise you've created an easy excuse for ignoring the extra work.
As an aside it's my preferred player on linux, good software.
Also somewhat proud (with slight embarrassment in admitting that) of this comment on the thread for the news article "Porn industry jumps into presidential campaign, targeting Project 2025". The reply I got was a great gag as well.
Another one for me is "route".
edit: On further thought, it only works both ways as a synonym for a highway, if I'm talking about a path more generally the root pronunciation sounds wrong.
Hearing a girlfriend express a lack of confidence because she wouldn't get accosted kind of fucked me up. A moment of realization that the way the world is is so drastically different from the way I want to believe it is, I didn't know where to start.
I try to build a habit of reacting to feeling upset with behavior by thinking up a situation that could lead me to act in the same way, but I really struggle to imagine what would make someone inclined to approach a stranger on the street with this kind of comment.
Totally unrelated, but I've seen comics from this artist before and they've always given me weirdly unsettling vibes. I can't really pinpoint if it's the dialogue or the art style.
I was very proud of my idea for a regional ditto for the pokemon franchise, and someone whipped up an amazing illustration in the comments: link
Mike Johnson says the healthcare program leads to "able-bodied young men" playing videogames instead of working
Everyone else has already pointed out the obvious point that free healthcare does not exist here, but you've at least gotta give it to him that this is a reasonable conclusion to draw given that "able-bodied young men" would surely be the least likely among us to get by without access to healthcare.
I was making fun of the guy who was arguing with her. That's why at the start of the very next sentence I said I was not being serious in the part you quoted, and then right after saying that I called out that exact behavior.
I get that sarcasm isn't always easy to detect online so I wrote a second short paragraph to explicitly clarify that the first was sarcasm. Sorry for being annoyed but I feel kind of frustrated that still wasn't clear enough to avoid getting condescended to.
