It creates an effect where surrounding air is pulled with the stream due to the Bernoulli effect. It’s the same thing that pulls shower curtains in when you shower. If the fan is a bit inside the window, surrounding indoor air gets pulled into the stream, moving more air out in total.
I’m not good enough to give recommendations, but meanwhile some questions might make it easier. What is your budget? Is open source important to you? What’s the biggest thing you want to print? Are there any special features you’re looking for? Do you want to tinker with it or rather have it “just work”?

Also about once a year, I get a letter from a lawyer, every year a
different lawyer, at a company. I don’t want to embarrass the company by
saying their name, so I’ll just say their initials, “IBM,” saying that
they want to use something that I wrote, 'cause I put this on everything
I write now. They want to use something that I wrote and something that
they wrote and they’re pretty sure they weren’t gonna use it for evil,
but they couldn’t say for sure about their customers. So, could I give
them a special license for that?
So, of course!
So I wrote back—this happened literally two weeks ago—I said, “I give permission to IBM, its customers, partners, and minions, to use JSLint for evil.” "

thread as in threaded posts as opposed to other parts of the fediverse with another layout. it’s not about the instance Threads, but the type of fediverse service allowing a lemmy/kbin type of conversation.
The difference, and the best part of the fediverse imho, is that if you’re not happy with someone elses rules you can become your own admin and set your own rules. The more we centralize power the further we go against that idea.

I agree that speech that incites violence is dangerous too. In theory I can imagine a net benefit if we could silence some voices in various places. The big question then is, who do we trust to decide which people should be silenced? I think governments have historically shown that they can’t be trusted. Then private people? Lots of people across the political spectrum feel that their version of truth is so important that they deem it moral to silence others, so what it comes down to is just who does it better. The image of an angry mob is no fun if the mob has decided that you should be silenced, even though you feel like you’re on the good side. They probably think they are the good ones. Who then?
As long as the consequences are words and non-violent actions. Advocating violence as a consequence for someone expressing an idea is imho dangerous and should be avoided.

Ads and data scraping? If we can’t survive without that I would rather go back to usenet, irc, and mailing lists etc.

I like the TeX version scheme, it starts with version 3. After that it’s:
3.1
3.14
3.141
3.1415 etc.
Current stable release is 3.141592653. The message is that each version is a more accurate approximation of pi. It’s not growing much bigger, but better.
It seems likely that the person who told OP meant it in the misused way, which makes the intent to intimidate clear.
