They looks identifical to nowday apple from a non-profesional perspective. Except the Hawaïan ones, I never saw a apple with pink flesh.

We also have a potato-like : word “patate”. “Pomme de terre” is déformation of “parmetière” from the name of M.Parmentier who introduce potatoes to the french population.

Well… At least these don’t way on your mind anymore.

Enjoy it 'til the end!

I there a ethnic group around the world that does not do that ?

I’m using more and more “master” as a first name online. That helps a lot.

No application should have this privilege by default. I only gives it to apps that can’t work without it.

I wish there was more people on not-so-general communities.
If this means less meme or political posts, it would be for the best. However, more specific communities that are not part of a themed instance have very little activity. If I want to learn about ecology and its science, I know I can find many active communities on slrpnk.net, if I want content that matter to Germans, I can go it feddit.org, jlai.lu the same for Frenchs. But if I want people posting picture of nice looking sticks or find !foraging stories or connect with people doing [email protected] I know that I have to be patient and that’s to bad 'cause if people spend less time commenting US election or some shower thoughts, some people will find time and fun interacting in these communities and many others.

Perfect! I was looking for a PieFed instance for my next alt.

We could mess back. We cannot influence much their userbase but we could make sure to stick to our vocabulary and rename Meta’s thing. For example, Thread should be rename MMT (Meta’s Microblogging Tool) and Loops, their “communities” Bubbles.

Are they choosing the names on purpose to mess with the fediverse vocabulary? Thread, when they are part of the twittoverse but not the threadiverse and now Loop like the TikTok-like federated social media from PixelFed…

I don’t received that much fish phone number, but as much as I receive legitimate call from unknown number (my bank, a friend who changed their list, etc.)

Do you post your ficction somewhere on the fediverse? I would like to read what come next.

In a similar vein, there is unsolicited calls from call center that dial your number automatically. If you picked up and say “Hello?” they register the sound and connect you with an agent. So I picked up my phone and stay silent every time I got a call from a unknown number. Quite enough that ends up by being hang up after 5 or 10 seconds. Actual people say “hello?” first when we don’t.

That’s a very nice start for a book.

You don’t need to learn about other people calendar but you mentionned about 3 calendars that are very famous and used by a significant portion of the world population. That not something obscure at all. Just something that is not part of your culture and you don’t know.

obscure calendars like the Hebrew, Islamic, or Chinese calendars

That’s not very nice to say, also very false

Community name checks out.

This is poetry!

Even lemmy, which is small in comparison has enough people that I barely even think about specific users. Let alone speak with them on a personal level.

I have a different experience but I’m on a very smaller instance than .world. Your instance is big, generalist but their is lots of them that are location- or topic-oriented. Such instances are not only smaller with a more personnalised local thread but the people on it share already identified common points with you.
