I had exactly 0 intention of ever buying anything from Adobe.

Inkscape gave me an alternative to the high seas. And it happens to do everything I need it to, although it's way more powerful than the simple vector graphics conversions I use it for.

10/10, Adobe never lost money from me getting Inkscape. They lost the game before they knew I was a player.

I wish we still lived in a country where legal arguments are still relevant.

When half the social networks, such as they were, have been decimated via illegal orders and people who don't have legal authority are allowed to do as they please, fire who they please, and confiscate funding as they please, laws mean nothing unless you're poor or in the "out" group.

She said I have to make a copy of my genitals with one of those silicone mold kits before I can get bottom surgery "then we can both enjoy it"

I was just trying to say it a bit more politely, my bad.

Can alumni class-action their university for devaluing their degree?

I give it 6 years tops.

The bell riots have been pushed back a bit, but it's only a matter of time.

It's great when people on your side of the border hate you because you support human rights, and people on the other side of the border hate you because of where you were born and lived untill recently.

Also simultaneously being told "you should just leave your shit hole country" from one group of people and also "you should stay and fix your own stupid country before you try and ruin others"

Basically "fuck you for existing, now go die quietly so we can get on with our lives"

And don't even get me started on any sort of minority group and how shitty they have it here. Can't even walk to the corner store without looking over their shoulder for ICE or some other thug law enforcement.

Okay I fully admit I am a reddit-fugee from the API announcement. I didn't wait for the changes, I just Lore Ipsum/copy pasted dictionary definitions until my account was scrubbed, and deleted the account.

Even so, when I first showed up here, there were maybe 50 up votes on a post, max. That was the front page for the first weeks as people came from reddit, and eventually most left because it's not as active here and 95% of people are lurkers who don't even comment. Those 50 up votes were all it would get.

Now this post alone has 260 in its first 3 hours. And I'm sure it will continue to get views and votes all day.

I'm not sure how the tone has changed around here since 2020, but I like the vibes for the most part and if I don't like a server, I can hop to another one, which I have done several times already.

Quality beats quantity any day of the week

Fediverse numba one!
