Absolutely beautiful. Happy to be a part of this community and still learning every day.
It needs way more gawdy neon color palettes.
I swear half these people with blogs pick the most aggressive bright pink and greens when building their websites from scratch for the first time and then just stick with it!
Weird corner of the userbase you submerged yourself in
Most people I come across just wanted a phone that wasnβt made by Apple
This is the meme I needed. Thank you!
wouldnt it be hardware from the 80s?
It's either "how it looks" or "what it looks like". You can't mix and match.
Thank you, came here to say this. It really feels like people are fighting over having the worst grammar, like there's something to win from it. Even basic stuff like this is apparently too hard to comprehend.
That is hardly basic if you aren't a native speaker.
You don't need the "like" on the end
People who think the idiom is "how x looks like" rather than "what x looks like", which is more correct.
I have yet to meet a furry or trans IT person IRL. Is there just a higher concentration of them across the pond? Or is bullying a bigger issue there maybe?

Visit any comic or anime convension and you'll find the former in spades.
As to the later, idk. I've got three cousins who came out as Trans in the last five years or so.
There's definitely been a thaw around sex and gender over the last twenty years, and I can't help notice a certain number of "butch lesbians" and "sis men" just saying "fuck it, I'm the other gender and straight" and going all the way.
Or is bullying a bigger issue there maybe?
Bullying certainly. But also there hasn't been a large and active transgender community until fairly recently. People coming to terms with what being transgender means and how to self-actualize it wasn't possible in the homophobic atmosphere of the 20th century.
We'll see how long this revolution survives in the current century. Germany also had a boom/bust of transgenderism in the 1920s. Hopefully, Trumpism/Starmerism isn't a bell weather for that kind of reactionary reversal.
