If I got any writing done, the characters would be productive and actually finish writing stories instead of procrastinating like me.

I can always just… not browse there though.
No scrolling, no ad, no engagement.

It works the same a a remote instance lemmy page.
Most likely .zip banned that community, which I’m also considering since it’s mostly spam.
Actually, kbin itself is mostly spam lately

Yea… no moderation would mean flooding of ads, spam, porn, child porn, etc.
I think it’s dumb af for someone like him to bitch about moderation.

Italian Poutine.

Actual poutine is great.
Spaghetti sauce is great.
But a Poutine where you replace the gravy with spaghetti sauce, no.

Only if your DMV does everything in Excel, so… maybe?

I doubt the guy had several different car makes on hand to commit some sort of nationwide parking violation spree with the same plate but different cars in places where it’s impossible to even drive between the two places in the time between both timestamps.

Haven’t used LVM in a while, so I can’t offer much insight there other than consider taking a backup of anything important.

If you visit on their home instance it mentions Nov 2022: https://qoto.org/users/admitsWrongIfProven Probably something that got fucked up in federation along the way.

Ok, but what you’re mentioning is actually a Linux community on a lemmy instance. That’s like a fediverse version of a linux subreddit.
It might show up weird on mastodon, idk.
The bot you speak of does not exist (or you didn’t mention their username), https://lemmy.ml/c/linux is just a collection of different people posting different threads about linux related stuff.

What bot?
Your only mention is a community, where there are multiple people posting and commenting about different Linux related subjects.
It’s more akin to a mastodon hashtag than to a user, which makes your clamoring for ban a bit weird.

I thought lemmy was an anti censorship effort, was I wrong?

Different places censor different things

So, Anglo cultures pushed women’s-rights, whereas Latin cultures … won’t, don’t, drag their heels, etc…

That’s mostly bullshit imo.

Grammar itself doesn’t necessarily hold back progress with gender identities and equality.
Languages evolve.
French can have gender neutral pronouns, which can make sense for referring to people of various gender identities.
Meanwhile, a gender neutral “table” is a bit moot. While a table is a feminine noun, such an object has no identity, its “gender” has nothing with social constructs, with gender roles or identities, not with women in general. A noun isn’t feminine or masculine because of its characteristics, but because of its phonetics and in some cases, plain old habit.
Synonyms can have different grammatical genders.

I’m quite certain that women are better off living in France or in French Canada than most places in the anglo US, not that it’s a high bar on the subject of women rights.

Yea it’s not even pronounced the same.
I just noticed native speakers confuse those more.
Meanwhile non-native speakers make other kinds of errors more.

Eh

I know you’re asking for such errors in other languages, but I find it interesting that some of the common english errors are more frequent with native english speakers than with learners of english as a second language.

A good example of that is using “of” instead of “have”.
Should of… of what?? It makes no sense to me how someone could confuse the two.

Having learned english as a second language, I learned to read and write it before learning to speak it.
On the other hand, I’d expect native speakers to have learned spoken english before learning written english.
I think this difference changes which errors someone is likely to make.
Native speakers confuse of/have more because they heard it long before writing it.
People who learned it later are less likely to make that mistake, although they’re more likely for some others.

TL;DR: Native speakers are more likely to make mistakes that are homonyms. Of/have, your/you’re, etc.

As for the spirit of your question, I’ll go with french.

Almost every noun in french is gendered.
Objects, body parts, concepts, ideas, pretty much anything and everything is gendered.
It’s also super obvious whenever someone doesn’t use the correct gender for anything.
It’s also hard to explain to anyone.
There might be a logic behind it, but I don’t know how to summarize any of it.
I just know it, but couldn’t tell you why.

Some of those make no fucking sense either.
It has mostly nothing to do with women or men or gebder roles and identity, it just is.
“Jam” is a feminine noun, yet “butter” is masculine.
“Bread” is masculine, but a “loaf” is feminine.
The noun for each and every season are masculine nouns, but the word “season” itself is a feminine noun.
Also, a “vagina” is a masculine noun, because reasons? Weird.
Various different words for “testicles” vary between masculine and feminine.

It’s all super obvious to anyone who speaks french, but I never managed to explain it to any speaker of a non-gendered language like english without breaking their minds.

One of the first things I did when I got a 3d printer.

While this answers the question about federation, you probably need to know that communities from other insurance will only start showing in /all once the first local user subscribes there.

When someone says “live a little” they mean it like “live a little more”.

This is both true and terrifying.
