In Taiwan they color the doors or just put a man/woman sign on the door. They will still use mandarin but it’s easy for people like me to figure it out.
They also get bonus points for being extremely handicapped friendly with their bathrooms. Better than a lot of places I’ve used in the US as far as privacy and accessibility are concerned.
They also label the outside stall doors with western and eastern style toilet signs so you can pick the one you want without peeking into every stall like a weirdo.
From my perspective it’s weird watching lemmy users constantly talk about lemmy like you all live in a private house. I’m from kBin but most of my subs are beehaw and lemmy.
The entire point of all of this is to find the best communities for you. The same idea should be discussed across various forums because forcing a community into one place allows for power hungry people to become moderators who censor and control the community. It also usually becomes an echo chamber as new opinions get squashed by popular ones.
I agree there might be better ways to organize everything but I think the first best step is to get everyone to realize that this isn’t a “us or them” or a “lemmy or kBin”. It’s more like I’m logged in through AOL and you’re logged in through EarthLink. Now we get to browse all this stuff in these shared spaces.
Unless I’m drunk I usually make the same capitalization error in my password on the same character every time. So it’s easy to delete that one character and hit enter.
I get it but I picked Mint not only for my recommendation to new users but the platform I advocate the most for on my YouTube channel. For anyone who isn’t computer savvy there isn’t a more straightforward and easy to use distro. If we want to grow the Linux community we have to be open to users with extremely limited knowledge regarding computing in general.
This does mean hand holding people through a setup even if there is a guide available. That’s my goal with my channel. To spread FOSS awareness and to show people how easy it is to make the switch to an overall better computer experience.
