  • Again, stupid chauvinist take. Not everyone speaks English and not everyone uses English pronunciations. Also, cwtch is a relatively popular loanword too, plenty of English speakers have learnt to say it.

    You know most of the world finds English spellings hard to pronounce, right? You’re speaking in a language notorious for its inconsistent pronunciations (see “-ough”).

    It’s also particularly fucked up to mock Welsh like that given that Welsh is one of the many languages with a long history of children being violently reprimanded for speaking their native language by English people.




  • I also use River. I’d say most Hyprland setups are generic and low-quality (what you’d call “slop”) but if it floats your boat go for it.

    I think possibly Reddit might have more setups similar to yours, given that Lemmy is smaller. I still see people use the various X11 WMs and have more clean-looking Wayland setups, though, not sure where you’ve been looking.

    If you just want inspiration, just look for like, anything other than Hyprland. Maybe you could search for BSD since I’ve never seen a BSD setup with Hyprland or all these flashy effects.



  • I only cook for myself so most recipes end up going in the fridge or freezer since they make more than 1 serving. I don’t like eating the same meal twice in one day but I don’t mind eating the same meal every day, so as long as I have 3 distinct meals in rotation each day I’m fine. If that number drops to 2 or 1 then I get cooking again.


  • gofundme is very strict so if theyre on gfm theyre either legit or you’d be refunded if not.

    Keep in mind people in Gaza usually have English as a second/third/etc language, or don’t speak English at all, so often use templates to make their fundraisers. And obviously machine translation too.

    Yes it is difficult to get money into Gaza but it does happen. I have a friend who evacuated in 2024 and he’s talked quite a bit about how it works; his friends and family who are still there do occasionally receive money from outside which lets them buy the extremely expensive vegetables and flour.








  • I think you’re conflating security with privacy. Not that they are unrelated, but something can be e.g. unencrypted but lack telemetry.

    Not that dumbphones are inherently private, but I don’t think they’re less private either. They’re just what you use if you have no need for all the smartphone functions.
