On Stoat, you can use a server’s emoji on any other server. This is something that you get for free, and Discord makes you pay for it.

What do you think of Fluxer? It seems to have more users than Stoat.

That’s DDG’s browser, though, not the search engine (which is what we were talking about).

My point is that vim’s design makes sense if you take into account the historical context that it was developed in.

Look until you see a thing that appears to be a not bullshit source. Most people don’t have this skill. And a lot of those web pages are going to be written by AI, too.

They celebrated when they turned 18...and then never spoke of them again. I was wondering what happened to the Olsen twins after they turned 18. Apparently, they turned into ringwraiths.

That isn’t minor at all. If I’m using a tool all day, it needs to be something that I’m comfortable using. Forcing me to use Windows is like taking my office chair and replacing it with a chair that has a lumpy cushion and broken casters. I understand putting up with a shitty job situation because you need the money, but this is certainly not a “minor inconvenience”.

No, lol. That would have to go through a Swiss court first. Also, the only info the FBI is going to get is “Yes, this person is a ProtonVPN customer.” Your data is end-to-end encrypted, so Proton cannot decrypt it.

I had to start using it again for work. It’s improved. It has a Unix terminal now. Still annoying as fuck in a lot of ways, and the community sucks. A lot of stuff that you can get for free on Linux costs money, and even though some Linux software should work in theory, in practice it does not.

I don’t know if any of them aren’t walled gardens. Everybody seems to be taking their design cues from Discord. It would be nice to have a setting making the server public or private, and then search engines could crawl public servers (such as tech support groups).
