The UK has also had multiple unelected prime ministers due to the way that the parliamentary system works.

That’s… not any indicator democracy is “on the wane”. In most Western European countries we don’t directly vote for the one man/woman, we vote for MPs because the legislative power is in the hands of the Parliament. As long as the Parliament is made of elected MPs then democracy is working just fine.

Democracy is working just fine in China according to people who live there.

Lmao, what? You can’t be serious.

Wait, are you serious?!

tbh I like W10, I grew up with 98 but the slight UI modifications of 10 (like the expanded and customizable start menu) felt necessary to me.

W11 however… that’s a pile of shit as it is very clear it aims to be pretty to casual users more than it aims to be useful and streamlined.

To be honest according to your own data that doesn’t seem good for Lemmy. Two huge instances who make up almost 30% of all Lemmy users aren’t federated anymore, it seems to me it’s a pretty big deal for Lemmy.

Yes but you’d get fat first.

The dreams in which I’m dying…

to be honest YouTube has great content because of the video length allowed. You can find all sorts of tutorials on pretty much anything. Instagram and TikTok, on the other hand, fit your description much better.

there isn’t another, and while Jerboa is in alpha the current exodus is bringing new developers to the project

not on Jerboa it doesn’t :(

that’s how strikes work, you know

well I’m Italian and I think we all see the flaws in our own language. Italian for example is easy to pronounce but has a crazily difficult grammar. English on the other hand has a very easy grammar but an incredibly difficult pronunciation to the point where you have to learn how each single word is pronounced (or spelled) because there are no phonetic rules. French has a bit of both, I guess.

to be honest those same quirks apply to English as well…

You mean comment threads? I can collapse them by clicking…

oh, I didn’t know it’s different than the iPhone’s!

I’m surprised r/libertarian is joining…

I’m still in the “find a girlfriend” stage

I don’t entirely agree. I have an iPad with Apollo and an Android with RiF and I’ve always liked RiF much more. Of course they’re both magnitudes better than the official garbage app. Just a matter of personal taste, I guess.

same! I’m amazed at how Jerboa is similar to RiF. Feels like home.
