  • I would really love an international language with consistent spelling and where the spelling matches the pronunciation. For me the chosen language doesn’t have to be artificial, but the selection process should be: a scientific choice based on consistency, ease of learning, clarity in meaning, … Everyone who knows a few languages, knows English is probably the worst choice when it comes to these objective criteria.

    It’s like the system of measurement: leave it to the people and we’d all still be using wacky thumbs, feet and elbows for measuring, but smart people came together in France (a few times) and now we have an easy to understand consistent system of measurement.


  • I visit Lemmy with sync on my phone and tablet. On pc I still visit reddit. I actually haven’t visited anything of Lemmy on pc yet.

    The content of Lemmy does feel lacking compared to what reddit used to offer me. And so does the content on reddit actually (feel lacking compared to what reddit used to offer me when I visited it with sync for reddit).

    The home tab when logged into the reddit app is just weird, so many subs that I have no interest in seeing are being shown, while subs that I’m actually a member off are shoved down the list. The worst offender for me, was that reddit had decided for me that I should be interested in my countries’ fascist sub, just because I’m a member of the pluralist main sub. When I was using the reddit app for a few weeks, I would see racist dog whistle posts daily. So now I don’t login into reddit anymore, I just browse it anonymous now.
