Butterfly
Green is second-easiest. Yellow is easiest.
But yeah I put green in as my guess for second hardest...
I’m having fun with the words presented to me
There was that time a couple of days ago where that was literally the answer. Felt so cheated!

It's not an app setting, it's a Lemmy setting. I don't know Voyager, but in Jerboa it's in the hamburger menu from the home page -> Settings -> [Username] settings. In Sync it's hamburger from the home page -> Settings -> Account settings. In Connect, I couldn't find the option.
You can get it on the web from this page. Make sure to hit "save" in the right section of the page (because each section has its own save button).
Ha, yeah, Python would probably be my choice if I were working from scratch. This is the one I was working with. And it seems to be working pretty well, though I'm not sure yet what caused by bot to fail to submit on schedule when I just left it running today.
Oh yeah I definitely don't intend to take over everything. Just things that I get specifically asked to do, as well as hopefully a few new things that weren't getting posted anyway.
Why not accept that the PRC won the civil war and that the ROC lost without any further conflict
Because, at its most fundamental, I think looking at the world in terms of the bigger fish is a disgusting worldview. We should just let the strong rule? In that case, let's go USA! Go pull out those nukes and use 'em on anyone who dares challenge your supremacy!
No, I would much rather live in a world where people can decide for themselves what they want, and where everyone else will help them achieve that if a bigger fish comes along to try and stop them.
Beats me. That's why I asked.
Though saying that calling out human rights atrocities in China is "sinophobia" is certainly tankie behaviour, so from what little evidence we've got here, the label works.
I made this because, frankly, it's a lot of work every day for me to post Connections. It's enough work that even though I would like to do more—like Conlextions and Categories, for example—I don't.
I also don't play a lot of the games that I would be more interested in that people sometimes post here, because usually by the time they post it, it's the next day. And then I've got nobody to share my posts with...unless they happen to post it again when it's the next day their time (which all too often they don't) and I see it and have my results recorded somewhere. I've had that happen to me with Strands and Tightrope, and even Categories a few times.
At the moment I usually post between 2–4 pm my time, because that's early enough that those of us in the far east can still do the game and post it in the afternoon peak hours, while being late enough to not throw off Americans too much, because it's only a few hours from midnight. Incidentally, the screenshots I do are also to help with that time zone issue. It means if you come across a post too early or too late for you, there's still at least some connection to it, and it makes it so that the link isn't completely useless (because it just takes you to today's).
Leaving it to different people posting in their unique ways is nice in theory, but I've personally felt cut out by it quite a few times because of the time zone issue.
The Chinese decide their own fate and destiny. Some will be winners some will be losers.
Tell me, should we take this same mentality to Ukraine and Palestine? Should those Eastern Europeans just be left to fight it out amongst themselves? Not our problem if the bigger more powerful one invades another? Not our issue what happens in the Middle East, if one country keeps another under its thumb for decades and then starts a wholesale genocide?
By all means, avoid hawkishness. Nobody wants to do anything to provoke China. But if China does decide to invade Taiwan, that will be one sovereign state aggressively invading another. And I don't think it's a bad thing to say "hey, maybe it's a good idea to try to stop that".

No, the connection today was "starts of swimming strokes".So they had breast[stroke], butter[fly], free[style], and back[stroke].
Although interestingly, all of these except butterfly are often shortened to the word as it appeared in the puzzle. Butterfly gets shortened to "fly".
