Not to defend Twitter, but if by “dead” you mean “dying,” well yes, gradually. If you actually meant dead “dead,” not really.

Agreed. Trying to find answers for questions probably already asked on Discord is impossible.

I get your concern about this meme being racist, but not everything is about race. The stock photo of two adults passing a baby and the picture from a cartoon depicting a woman throwing a baby just so happened to be of different races. IMO that’s not racist.

I don’t think it is racist. I feel like we have gone a few steps too far trying to associate everything with race. By the way, “hey here’s my theme I just did for my fresh Arch installation” just doesn’t have the same ring to it. About that origins as a racist term thing, like it or not, it’s now the term for the seeds of Oryza sativa, and there isn’t some alternative way of referring to rice. That means it is now widely accepted as a non-racist term.

Yeah, before I got into this Fediverse thingy, I too thought that I would have to create bazillions of accounts across different servers and that this is a terrible “business model.” Look where I am now, with a matrix account, lemmy account, and a mastodon account and all the Fedi-thingies. We need to somehow let people understand how the Fediverse works better.

You really just threw “generic Chinese name” into some translator didn’t you lol
