I know you're getting downvoted but I think you're right. I always bike on the sidewalk, even if it is illegal here. It is awkward to get out of the way for pedestrians and I do get dirty looks, but that's better than being run over.

I think that's already a feature. If I press and hold on a comment it gets minimized.

I don't like it. It's closed source and we have no idea what Zuck is doing behind the scenes. If it was open source I would trust it a lot more readily, but there's 0 chance of that ever happening.

I had a girl break down crying in one of my classes after the prof said the $200 textbook was mandatory. She said she was living paycheque to paycheque and couldn't afford it without skipping meals. We couldn't even pirate it because it was the "Canadian edition" which had a completely different chapter format and layout.

I'm a student right now, and basically every single person I have talked to has pirated a textbook at least once. Everyone is sick of paying $200 for a textbook that the prof sometimes doesn't even use.

It feels very exciting to be here! It's a lot more open and customizable than other social media. I really hope that this is a small glimpse of what the future of the internet could be.

I underline or highlight things that I think are important or interesting. It makes reading back a lot more interesting, almost like a little window into what past me was thinking about.
