Sure, it's counterintuitive, but so is not bracketing things in ternary operations.

In the UK we have a thing called references where they call your former employers and confirm your role and dates of work...

Tags is a cool idea to help users find posts or communities on specific topics.

But taking away the different communities on the same topic is misunderstanding one of the key benefits of the fediverse over Reddit. I might want to talk about horses in a different way, with different people, operating under different rules, to the way others might want to talk about horses. The fediverse allows that, without having RealHorseTalk and RealRealHorseTalk nonsense.

Better UI and categorisation tools, yes. That'll help make sense of this for new users. But don't take away an actually positive aspect of the fediverse just to make it look more like Reddit.

This is what's amazing. They could make a good, ad-supported app, but they seem to insist they don't need to while wondering why everyone's angry about third party apps going away.

It's easy to ignore when it was dropped. Charges are not convictions.

Coffee doesn't automatically come with sugar, so... Obviously no? What rhetorical point are you even trying to make?

I have this too, made worse in Jerboa where it won't even remember my filter settings so I have to go to All and New every time to see anything.

Edit: oops, found you could change the defaults in Jerboa settings. Still shouldn't need to, it should just remember last choice, but at least it's possible.

Muslim is not a static or homogenous thing. The majority Muslim bit doesn't need to change - the majority of Muslims need to become more understanding.

This is not stated accurately. The American versions of pizza and carbonara we're invented in the US, but there were and are original Italian versions.

So many sites don't even provide RSS anymore. It used to come enabled out of the box for every content management system, now only in the large old ones like Drupal.

This is such a clever part of the protocol. So many different UIs are possible with the same underlying framework and data.

What do you mean by "snag that exact name on Lemmy"? The same community name can be used across multiple instances, so you'd only be snagging it for the instance you create it in.

is it just me or are these devs doing everything right? Incredibly informative, really frequent and detailed communication, and the product is looking to be a solid, significant improvement but largely in uncontroversial ways on the first game. Make everyone happy, alienate no-one. They seem so in tune with their player base, it's rare to see. (Fingers crossed it remains so).

Why would it be an issue for career progression? Work is work.

A lot of people, but a motherboard more bots.

This has come up as part of those requests to migrate accounts between instances. "I want a persona that stays with me for years"... Is that actually a good idea though!?

Without explaining the actual problems you have with Firefox on Android, your post is really pointless.

Also, "steadily approaching zero" is an intelligent an analysis as saying Edge is steadily approaching 100% just because its share is increasing.

Aya is just so good at everything she does, I'm sold already.

If a company can't work out how to recognise and understand quality work wherever and however it's done, that's a bad company and that company is going to promote worse options. There's nothing inherent in working from home that makes progression bad, just a company that isn't bothering to adapt.

That said I agree in person interactions are invaluable - just not that a huge amount of them are necessary to progress the best people.
