Edit: mods removed the comment? Why? I don’t think the guy was wrong to be concerned about sexual content in books for children and I would have liked my question answered.

It’s probably the mods on your instance (lemmy.ca) that removed the comment. I can still see it.

I also love his videos!

Please don’t use serif fonts for UI elements. Imagine the buttons on your file manager being Times New Roman. (eww.) I think what you’re looking for is a monospaced font that’s designed to distinguish O/0, I/1/l, etc.

Plug for one of my favorite fonts: https://www.jetbrains.com/lp/mono/

What was particularly sad this time was that the mods here, instead of deleting the abusive comments which I reported several times, decided instead to remove the whole post altogether while those comments themselves were never touched. So, not only the reporting option became pointless, but it also removed (in my opinion) a nice conversation on the topic. In the mod log they wrote ‘reason: Troll bait’ for why the post was removed, but I find…let’s say very coincidental that every time a discussion about Hexbear (which might start very calmly at first) has then to be locked or deleted because of the trolling.

I am almost certain that the post was removed by one of the admins on Hexbear. See their modlog: https://hexbear.net/modlog?page=1&userId=172774. They removed almost all comments made by @comr@hexbear.net, banned him, and removed the post.

I think maybe we should relax the rule for CCP, Russian, Stalinism, etc. apologia for this thread? I don’t really see the purpose of this thread if those viewpoints aren’t allowed here.

Thankfully, OP is from an instance that has not federated with Hexbear. Hexbear users won’t be able to see this post.

Wow, they actually were talking about me. That admin is really arrogant.

So eloquently and precisely did you sum up my experience with them that I am starting to suspect you are me.

Heck I think Lemmygrad is more tolerable than Hexbear, by a lot.

Yeah, the Chinese government is totally very democratic and is receptive to the criticism of its citizens! They never censor words and topics they don’t like on their social media platforms!

嗨，難得可以在 Lemmy 上遇到台灣人。相信我，我懂你的心情。我前幾天也被六熊們搞得很煩。什麼新疆人過得很好、習維尼迷因是種族歧視、台灣是中共領土等巴拉巴拉的。

我家外面風好大，雨也好大，你那邊呢？

I actually got almost half of my colleagues to use Signal. Well maybe they probably still use another chat app even when talking to a fellow colleague who has Signal, but at least got them to register an account.

I fail to see any reason for hating a chat app so passionately except possibly for privacy concerns, which is definitely not the case here.

Mine is not blocked yet. I am definitely worried about this though. I am in East Asia.

Wonder how much YouTube is going to squeeze out of this ad blocker blocking.

Probably not, but the convention is that periods and commas always stay within the quotes, whether the period or comma is a part of the quote or not. (This differs from what one expects from writing code.) When using question marks though, the placement does depend on whether the question mark is a part of the quote.

Try https://github.com/osfans/trime. It has multiple input schemas (i.e. pinyin, zhuyin, cangjie, etc.) to choose from, and they are great for typing Chinese. Admittedly it only supports the C in CJK, but it is absolutely worth a try if you don’t need Japanese or Korean.

Try Thumb-Key. It’s a keyboard made by Lemmy’s main developer. It uses a rather exotic layout, but once you get used to it, it is so much better than qwerty.

What the hell is this news outlet? No matter how badly someone messed up, media should always refrain from using words like scabby or loser behavior.

Edit: I should make it clear that I do not object to anyone calling him a scabby person. It’s just that news outlets should never do this.

Bottom. It’s what makes Firefox stand out.
