When I was using Mastodon, the local timeline was almost exclusively what I was paying attention to. It was a really nice small community of people.

I suppose memes about dreams must always have plenty of comments. People (myself included) just love talking about their dreams!
This is easy though. The amount of times I’ve kicked my toe into something on the way to the kitchen and ended up in 12th plane of torment is innumerable.
Is this how cyborgs are made?
One thing that might not be obvious is that the All feed is different too, as it only shows posts from communities someone on the instance has subscribed to. But since there are ways to search communities across instances, it isn’t really a big deal. Unless you’re on an instance of one or two people maybe.
Federation and moderation are probably where the instance matters most. Also, the matter of who runs the instance is kind of important considering stability and longevity of the instance. (mine for example will probably be gone within a month once I break something)
The package managers are actually a huge upgrade, at least in my opinion. I was always annoyed having to hunt for the right site for the right installer, now I can just search and install with a command without even opening a browser. But the biggest benefit is the updating. One command to update everything is so handy, one command and all my applications and drivers are updated just like that. But there is the issue of many programs simply not supporting Linux. For those you’ll sadly have to find replacements or workarounds.
If you want to get rid of Grub instead of what others have suggested, you could try booting into Windows and look for “advanced startup” and do a startup repair from there. That might destroy Grub and replace it with Windows bootloader again. If it works, your Linux stuff will remain on the drive, but Windows will boot like before. (you can easily reformat the HDD drive from Windows afterwards to use it for storage)
Some of my personal tips for moving to Linux:
Oh definitely! They didn’t really have any direction for story early on, but with Mahjarrat storylines that began to change. Then they began to weave all the different stories together into a coherent world with surprising success.
I’d say in 2011-2013 the story really started to kick off. Gods for example were turned from simple good-evil entities into actually interesting characters representing different ideologies and philosophies.
Unlike some other MMOs, RS doesn’t have voice acting (for the most part), which allows them to write a lot more dialogue. For example Azzanadra’s Quest alone has ~25 000 words of dialogue. You can probably imagine how much lore a 20-year-old game like that can contain!
My useless skill is being a RuneScape lore repository. There’s very little that I don’t know about that subject.
This was one of those rare times when a meme full of text was actually enjoyable!
Probably belongs to the Long Long Man.
I do this to myself and then get disappointed 20min later.
“Nah, surely they wouldn’t make it that obvious, that would be downright bad writing… More clues, they must be trying to lead me astray and then surprise me with a better twist! Oh, it really was just the obvious one… Hmm.”
That’s… actually quite interesting. I wonder how true the part about projecting current emotions on it is. I never see it as anything, but an emotionless face.
This was my old keyboard, until I fell into the rabbit hole of

I’m not quite sure if I’m better or worse off now, but I love my Moonlander nonetheless.
I was going to say I haven’t had any issues, but then remembered I only sort by New and Top…
I think it’s worth mentioning the amount of instances full of bots as well. I just started hosting my own instance and decided to check other instances’ block lists to defederate from at least some bot instances. I now have about 50 blocked instances. (instances with 60k or so users each with no posts)
I’d say what’s intuitive is very subjective. Most of a language tends to be intuitive to its native speakers, no matter how unintuitive it seems to someone else.
To me the intuitive genderless option for “he/she” would be “it”. Coming from Finnish, it seems much more natural to have “it” include people instead of using “they” for both singular and plural. Or if using “they”, it would feel intuitive to say “they is” instead of “they are”.
I’m aware it’s a thing and not really a plural. What I was trying to say is that it looks plural and since I didn’t learn about this part of English until several years into my studies as a kid, it isn’t as well established in my mind as “you are” is (that also looks like a plural, but I’m used to it).
“They are” for a single person catches my mental error filter the same way as “I are” or “you is” would, which is highly annoying.
but it’s Monday… and I’m not quite sure what conclusion to draw from that.
I very much agree. Learning English as a foreign language, it feels very wrong to use plural for a single person. I’m still not quite used to it! Although, had I been taught that early on, I doubt it would feel any weirder than using “you are” for a single person.
I do this all the time, although admittedly not when speaking to others… It’s useful for problem-solving if one gets stuck, a little while of no thinking clears the board and allows thoughts to again wander new paths. It’s also useful for preventing headaches from muscle tension!
