They're not talking about texting apps, it's keyboards and speech to text engines that often have a profanity filter, which usually is on by default.

I disable it on everything every time I change phones or format, but not everybody tinkers with settings.

You probably default to a keyboard without profanity filter.

It takes 10 minutes for you. I know people who struggle to understand that the browser isn't google isn't the internet, try having them install a new OS. They don't follow the guides, because they don't even understand what they should look for.
Some understand enough but like the convenience, and again that's fair.

Bedsides, gaming distros aren't the mess you say they are, nor are they so much more niche than any other major distro.
Usually they just work, when they don't you look for fixes in the underlying distro community.

You are gatekeeping, and you are condescendingly deciding the best path for everyone else. I get that you honestly think it would be better, still people are different, what's best for you doesn't need to be the best for everyone else.

They don't make gaming better, they make it easier for people who want to switch to have a functioning system, and there's no price tag at all. Some will learn from there, some will just keep taking the easy way and that's fine too.

It's gatekeeping because without them only people willing and able to get technical get access to Linux. Would it be better if everybody learned? Of course. It's not going to happen though, let others have a way in.

I like the fossify forks much better than the simple tools, I used to only use the gallery (and even for that I switched to Aves) now I have many of them as default. Dialer is nice, though the integration could flow better.

If there was a choice to make, I would give up smartphones entirely without a thought

I think you can notice that I do actually slightly obsess about knowing myself too lol. How else I am to move forward if not by learning what makes me tick, eh? ^^

Preach, friend.

I think I can start to see a picture here.

Your direct environment may not have been hateful, but from your description the entire cultural setting, from language to customs, implanted some bias toward what is right and acceptable, or natural. It's a strong influence, and it frames the entire reality unless one goes out of their way to challenge it, as you did. Kudos for that.

I agree that rationally nothing is confusing, but if you grow up with a substructure that implies things should be a specific way, your emotions will follow that framework.

I see that in my country as well, and in myself still sometimes, as much as I try to counter it.

I agree that meeting and getting to know a trans person would probably help in that, especially since consciously you already know how things work. It may be difficult for the trans person though, even if you don't intend it to be. I'm sure you already know.

Thank you for your answer, and good luck in your slight obsession :)

I agree for the most part, and I left the Catholic Church I grew up in for that and many other reasons.

However, isn't Christ's message supposed to be "you shall love your neighbour as yourself"? When it becomes "hurt your neighbour as much as you can" does it make sense to still call it Christianity?

Since it's been that way basically from the beginning though, maybe well meaning Christian people should just step away and start over.

I had the same issue, you could try Lemmy Redirect (the github repo is named after the Mastodon proxy, but the Lemmy one is there as well), works for me.

While the solution seems flimsy at best, reading the article makes things a bit more complicated. As far as I can tell, what doctors are striking against is a raise in the admission numbers for medical schools, as they think it will worsen working conditions.

Major hospitals are struggling to provide services after thousands of junior medics handed in their resignations and stopped working last week to protest against government plans to sharply increase medical school admissions in the face of a rapidly ageing society.

Seoul says it has one of the lowest doctor-to-population ratios among developed countries and the government is pushing hard to admit 2,000 more students to medical schools annually from next year.

I like URLCheck better, the graphics isn't that nice but it works like a charm and you can set it to get rid of amp, redirect, anything you can script for basically

I always root my phones and I found that installing those app on a cloning environment, like island, usually has them working fine
