Wordpress supports federation. Or are you looking for something else?

Average voter: “I know who to blame for this! It’s the immigrants who are at fault!”

Rich people: yes, yes, fuel that hatred! Don’t look here!

No worries, as a European, English isn’t my first language either :P

And as a response: if my job depended on being on the “right side of things” I wouldn’t make such controversial statements. Not only is it dumb in the moment, but also for the future. People are very polarised and even if she had changed her mind by now, there’d still be outrage “omg, look at what she said years ago! I don’t trust that she changed!”. Of course she supposedly doubled down, which is even dumber IMO, but you get the point.

I use this anonymous account because what the opinions I express here will probably evolve and I don’t want any future employer putting me into a box due to a comment made in jest, rage, or whatever. Revealing your identity online for anything other than business is just asking for trouble.

No side effects from the drug were detected in either group.

Wow, that’s great.

I wonder what happened to vasalgel. They were supposed to have trials long ago, but for some reason never got there. The webpage says

NEXT Life Sciences announced its launch of the product called Plan A, using the Vasalgel technology for male contraception. The NEXT team expects Plan A to be available to the public in 2026.

But they’ve been saying that for a decade or so now.

Bro, are you seriously against male contraception? The pill has failure rates of 9 friggin’ percent of typical use. 99% for typical use would be amazing.

Vasectomies aren’t 100% foolproof.

Failure rates (first year) Perfect use 0.10%
Typical use 0.15%
“Vas-Clip” nearly 1%

Consolidation? As in trying to consolidate reddit and twitter into the fediverse?

Would you if it’s something you care about

Did you forget a word?

I’m having trouble with the rest of your post too. Autocorrect must’ve struck or something.

That’s great. Since when and does everybody take psych 101?

And just to give a wider perspective (regardless of her origins), not every language makes the distinction and some up until recently did not. Look at the translations on (wiktionary). Many of them are transliterations of the English word. Which is not a surprise since the concept of gender is quite recent (1950-1960s) and was most likely very US-centric.

I don’t understand why people don’t keep such comments to their anonymous, unofficial accounts. You can hold such views in private and still treat people with respect, but saying these things officially changes everything. The co-organiser is in a space where she should know better. She then even doubled down

When asked whether she still held her more problematic views in a follow-up comment, Young responded ambiguously with “I fully stand by the statement you are commenting on.”

In for a penny, in for a pound, eh?

Wohooo!

This is what happens when you opensource stuff. Some dude will make it work on Linux 🤣 . Amazing.

Awesome, thank you!

Oh shit, really? Do you have a source for that?

I wish they worked with opensource projects like Heroic to provide an easy and fast way to run their games on Linux like in Steam. And if they provided a donation option or something to fund that work.

LMAO, that person is delusional and has no idea what human trafficking is.

Human trafficking is the act of recruiting, transporting, transferring, harboring, or receiving individuals through force, fraud, or coercion for the purpose of exploitation.

wikipedia

Sure, it was possibly dangerous, but human trafficking it was not. Although, if they forced you to eat a salade nicoise, that’s torture and should’ve been reported.

Never noticed they were gone. Just checked and my instance defederated from them. All is good in the world.

For a second I thought this was a hexbear comment.

SJW? Social Justice Warrior? Is that an instance?

That’s not a language, it’s a dialect and nowhere near standard. I think there’s quite a difference between responding in a language that can be translated by existing translation tools vs whatever offshoot of a dialect you wrote that in. After all, people from the UK will respond in English, not Cockney, Geordi, Brummie or whatever else. And they don’t write words how they sound when spoken, which is what you’re doing.

Surprisingly your text was translatable by DeeplL

As to the UX, I don’t see the problem. Lemmy allows you to select which languages you want to see and if people consistently respond in a language you don’t wan to see, you can always block them. It’s a pity Lemmy doesn’t allow deselecting “Undetermined” because it would turn this into a non-issue.
