Me too. I still don’t know why.

That’s really cute. I like hearing people’s music in their nice speakers too, percolating up through the floors, and one of my old housemates was a singer and it was always nice to hear her. Sometimes I’d try to sing along too.

I think it makes me a happier person to hear it. It makes me feel like I’m in a community.

I hear it de-snap-ifies Ubuntu.

Yes, it works fine on Voyager (native Android app). Gave it an upvote because it had none and looked lonely.

I’m so glad it didn’t come off as passive-aggressive or rude. Thank you for this message. I hope you have a truly wonderful day, my friend.

Grammatically, no, because “or” is a coordinating conjunction (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so), and coordinating conjunctions are a way to join two independent clauses, like a semicolon. They are used after an independent clause and a comma, and they are followed by another coordinating conjunction.

Here’s two independent clauses: I got scratched by a cat. I’m sad.

Here’s a way to join them with a semicolon: I got scratched by a cat; I’m sad. The semicolon replaces the period.

Here’s a way to join them with a coordinating conjunction: I got scratched by a cat, so I’m sad. The , so replaces the semicolon/period.

Note that I got scratched by a cat so, I’m sad is incorrect, because to join two independent clauses, you’re supposed to put the comma first and then the conjunction, in that order. Colloquially, people will often omit the comma entirely, to reflect pronunciation I guess. But as far as I can tell, people don’t generally pronounce a pause between the coordinating conjunction and the following independent clause, so they don’t put a comma there either.

It does (eventually) because it’s a dark wet environment you’re constantly polluting with your mouth germs.

That sucks. Tech support can be so annoying sometimes. I’m dealing with it too, although in a very different area. I wish they made it at least easy to give them money.

Good luck with Jellyfin and the other things you’ll be doing.
