Afaik it’s somewhat frowned upon in Baltic societies since the Russian war in Ukraine. You’ll probably find some people who’ll happily speak Russian with you, but others might judge you for speaking Russian but not their national language.

My main problem with Loops is that they develop webui-first. Cool, they have a “for you” feed now. But only on webui. The app is still on it’s release from start of November and doesn’t have this hugely announced feature.

Would not recommend people to go to the Baltic states in order to use/practice their Russian though. Central Asia is probably the way to go for that purpose.

Thanks for the quick fix! :)

I assumed that it’s the interaction between the app and the Piefed API

Actually it seems like it’s only up-/downvotibg comments that doesnt work for me anymore. For posts it gives me no error.

With the “active” sort, I regularly get posts on top of my feed that were originally made days or weeks ago, but still have discussions going on in the comments. I dont think thats a negative thing at all.

Well no, because app users can’t use it if it is only implemented in the web UI

I mean, it’s an open “heads up” so better that than not informing their students at all

Der KFC aus der Mariahilferstraße hat auch eine Filiale in der Landstraßer Hauptstraße? Man lernt nie aus!

What people do in that case is look at pictures of people with various hairstyles online, trying to find one where they feel like “this looks good, I want to try that one”. Or consult with a good hairdresser when you’re there who might have some suggestions of what could fit you. Nowadays there are even apps where one can try to put various hairstyles onto their own picture.

Well, first let me say that you should go to the barber as often as you want, not as often as an average man does.

I personally go every 3 months because I have long hair and only need to get it into a bit of shape regularly. If I had a short hairstyle I would go more often.

I think there is nothing about race at all. Whitewash as in the meaning: to make something bad seem acceptable by hiding the truth.

The reason why so many people look on the 80s nostalgically is because they were children or teens during the 80s.

ATProto is open. Bluesky is not.

What we currently see is similar to how ActivityPub looked when it was first drawn up as a protocol: when 99% of users were on Mastodon GmbH’s server.

The ten thousands of servers came later. And in theory ATProto is defined open enough that it is possible to implement it independently from Bluesky.

Well, it is developed by a sole developer who also solo-develops Pixelfed. The guy spreads himself way too thin, so development moves slow.

Fediverse Observer says Piefed MAU were 352 in May, 1068 in June and 1615 in July. So thats a rise of ~1300 people in two months.

People are lazy, that’d be my explaination for why they’d use Patreon

I mean, the state can fine them, they just can’t execute that if the owner company of 4chan truly has no assets in the UK.

The difference is that the UK is not blocking sites. Sites are blocking the UK.
