Why are you all believing this obvious piece of false information?

The huge differentiator is that KDE may look like windows OOTB on most distros, but if you want you can easily make it look like Gnome, Mac, Unity… whatever. The panels and menus are infinitely configurable.

Is there a way to configure the look of all the apps running on kde? Because one of the main things that keeps my away from KDE is how ugly all the k* apps look out of the box.

I actually like Gnome. I like the way it looks and I have no problems with UX. I also don't feel the need to use any extensions.

Your home directory would look super cluttered then. You can also generally disable hiding them via changing a setting in the file browser.

I don't think that's obvious to anyone who hasn't watched that movie/series/whatever. At least it wasn't obvious to me, because I don't know that guy.

Oh. So that was their play.

Maybe going outside but with another human to distract you could help?

I think someone once wrote a tampermonkey script that automatically hides lemmy posts that mention certain keywords.

Whenever I see such situations I'm glad I have created an account on hexbear after they federated, because I know they don't tolerate this shit. All the ex-reditors on those instances tell each other scary campfire stories of the things hexbears did when they were federated with them (or as is the case .world, the things they could do if they were hypothetically federated), but as can be seen from the upvotes on that post, they are the people who would most benefit from being haunted by them for their takes.

Oh to see a medieval peasant's face after reading them this headline.

People say he's the greatest footballer of all time.

Is this a new lemmy feature? (the embedding of the news article)

It isn't just a server thing. Discord can request a phone number from you if they think something unusual is happening. Trying to create an account while using tor will make them ask for a phone number, and they reject those numbers offered by shared number services.

Last I checked I could only share specific windows, not the whole screen. Later there was also an update with a window or screen selection dialogue that didn't work at all, I think. After that I stopped using it on wayland.

I don't see a reason to spell it phonetically when it is a real word (forge in esperanto). A phonetic spelling would also only be more digestible to readers who know the language the phonetic spelling is tailored at (phonetic spelling is language specific as different languages use different ways to represent different sounds).

ĝ is simply the english sound of the consonants in the following words: "john", "gem", "jar". And j is pronounced as the y in "yes" and "yoink"

The diacritic would clear up confusion, because "g" without the diacritic has different sound (like the g in "gamma", "girl", "go" in english). The diacritic as a bonus would also makes it clear that it isn't supposed to be pronounced it as if it were in english, because english does not use the ^ diacritic. It would also extinguish my annoyance at seeing a misspelled word being used as a trademark.

I hope that someday they decide to add the diacritic to clear up the confusion (Forĝejo (/forˈd͡ʒe.jo/) is how it's supposed to be pronounced). It's 2024, there's no reason we should be afraid of non-ASCII characters.

just like how they moved from hexbear and grad to ml

Hexbear wasn't even federated to begin with. It's not like defederating from them made them move to lemmy.ml. lemmy.ml was always a leftist instance (though I feel like it has gotten somewhat poisoned towards the right with the reddit wave).

Huh. I must have mixed it up with another instance then
