The reason I still use Reddit is that, as a polyglot, there is barely any content in most languages I speak in the Fediverse. It’s already difficult enough to find content in Galician or Catalan/Valencian on mainstream social media such as Reddit or Instagram. I did delete my Reddit account, stopped using the site for weeks but… I found no alternative? The closest was Mastodon, but I never really liked Twitter’s format which is basically what Mastodon is, so it is not for me. And, of course, there is absolutely NOTHING here on Lemmy in those languages. So, between feeding them with free data or not being able to use my languages at all (because I live in a place where none of them are spoken) I had to choose the lesser evil.
Same with Spanish: “lado oculto de la Luna”, ‘hidden side of the Moon’.
“Rapaz” = Guy, as in a young man, in Galician / Bird of prey in Spanish.
For real, not having the mouse slows you down big time, even though I’m more or less skilled at keyboard shortcuts
Fool of me, I searched “Great Tits” to learn more about this bird and, well… Don’t do it.


Yep, and that’s why I use it.


That’s also a good point.


I am not buying anything from Nvidia anymore. Who does he think he is to judge our opinion?


I use Firefox. I know it’s not perfect, but it’s not that bad.
And if I didn’t, I’d use Vivaldi. Only reason I don’t is I do prefer open source whenever possible and, well, Firefox isn’t Chromium.
This is such a cool fact; I’m a sucker for these things, I’m saving this post.


Exactly my thought
As an Spaniard, this is the bare minimum I expect from my government. Better yet would be to evict the US from the Rota and Morón bases.


The most I’ve payed for a phone has been 350 €. Alternatives to the current duopoly must exist and I am glad they are getting more recognition, but this would still be double of what I am willing to pay; like, I earn 1,151 € a month, so 700 is the better part of my salary.

Yep. Besides, in the case of Galician and Catalan (especially the former) they are endangered languages; there is nowhere where onmy Galician is the official languages, and bad policies are pushing it to the brink of extinction. Most Galician you hear today is heavily influenced by Spanish, so having spaces where the language is protected, in this context, online spaces, is critical to its salvation.
