khaliso, to memes in Why? Are we not doing enough?

For me personally, I have less connection to specific subs than back in the reddit days, given its federated nature and all that. I enjoy scrolling through the homepage, but don’t really have that specific moment of ‘I thought of something nice! That would fit nicely into this one, specific subreddit!’

Which, don’t get me wrong, can be a good thing in the long run. But it takes a bit of getting used to.

Probably because of bad memes with bizarre phrases like “user is keep”

Well, Lemmy is really not good at pushing new content/new posts and/or new communities to people. For many of us, that might be a boon: less algorithmic shenanigans, less "steering" of the user. Yet, if you are not a user who likes to actively seak out stuff, your feeds will look stale and slow-paced very quickly. There might be new stuff,.but the feeds struggle to find a middle ground between "only the upvoted stiff you subscribed to", "the always same server wide top posts" and "bleeding edge new stuff". It's also very reluctant to sprinkle on new communities.

I think that's a main contributor to the decline.

For the record: kbin is more liberal when it comes to that sort of stuff. So if you like a more active feed, you might want to try kbin. If you like your feed to be controlled by you more, use Lemmy.

I’ve stopped posting in a few communities due to user interaction. Some are just asses, some want this to be Reddit 2.0.

Yeah, transliterating to an English spelling doesn’t help much.

I’d never make a joke like this, not because it’s disrespectful or whatever, but because I’d just be outing myself as bad at reading.

This is the method I use for password generation. Pure entropy. Probably quantum proof too /s

It is a real word btw, patronymic meaning “Son of Andrew” turned into surname.

and that is why cyrillic alphabet is superiour

riodoro1,

Written in latin alphabet.

We’re doing fine here in poland, thanks for your concern.

TimeNaan,

He’s got a point. In cyrillic rhis could be written much shorter, for example “rz” would be replaced by “ж” and “cz” by “ч”.

Cyrillic is better adapted to slavic languages than latin.

Vitaly,
@Vitaly@feddit.uk avatar

yes, for cyrillic alphabet it is a lot more authentic for slavic languages

ornery_chemist, (edited )

I think rz is linguistically equivalent to a soft r, so in this case rze would be “ре”, not “ж”. In some areas, rz is pronounced closer to the Czech ř. IIRC, ж transliterates to ż (not to be confused with ź, which is a soft z). The Polish Roman alphabet is very regular and well adapted to the language, representing palatalization and other non-Latin sounds as digraphs in a similar way to Italian or English.

The cyrillicization of Polish was historically done to a limited extent, but carried with it some, shall we say, sociopolitical baggage. There are also some peculiarities to Polish that either don’t exist or have ambiguous transliterations into Cyrillic, such as the Polish nasals ą and ę or ó (historically a long o, but currenly pronouned /u/).

It’s a good Scrabble word. It’s the sound you make when you get your sexual organs trapped in something.

Klear,

Is it in the dictionary?

OutlierBlue,

His sexual organ? Or the word?

ZagamTheVile,

It could be, if you read it in the nude and you close the book too fast.
