Mein Chef hat neulich Signal als "WhatsApp für Arme" bezeichnet... als ob letzteres was kosten würde

I'm not talented to do it myself but if someone will make a kiki version of it, I will upvote it

"The E makes the vowel say its name."

The joke is that many, if not most, English dialects merge /ʌ/ with schwa but insist that the sounds are different because schwa is never stressed

"Nothing is fun 8 hours a day" isn't an advice but at least it's true

Disagreement is maybe best communicated by the absence of an upvote?

There is a quote "You can not not communicate" but on the internet you can. If I get no upvotes, I don't know if no one has seen it or people actively ignored it and it's a bad advice to feel disagreed on when no upvotes.

I personally feel frustrated when I get downvotes but no comments because I don't know why I'm downvoted. Some instances here in the lemmyverse (like mine) don't have downvotes enabled so I don't even see downvotes.

I think it's best to engage in a conversation if you disagree in a constructive way and downvote without comment if you feel this is beyond help.

Thanks! I never worked with PHP but I understand your explanation. Making memes about languages is also about learning

Linguistic humor. I know it exists in the lemmyverse but it's not active

I'd still very much like to HIDE threads I'm not interested in. Otherwise, no matter what stream I choose (Subscribed | Local | All), I keep seeing the same topics, and it can be downright difficult paging through streams to see new stuff from more communities. That's not good, frankly.

1. You can choose a sorting algorithm. If you sort by "New" you get the new stuff but you can also sort by active, new comments, ... to get variation.

2. At least in Jerboa, there is the account setting "Show Read Posts".

I hope that's helpful. I'm pretty sure it exists but I haven't found a history function. I'd like to have a list of the last posts I've visited.

For Context: I live in the United States of America.

It's so cool that you say that! Most Americans just assume they are the default and don't have to say where they are from.

For Context: I live in Europe

When you realize your code has exponential length...

I always thought it's funny to see such a spelling bot on linguistics themed subs where everyone was like "fck you descriptivist" and they were downvoted into oblivion
