Message me and let me know what you were wanting to learn about me here and I’ll consider putting it in my bio.
hm, if it’s not too much to ask, maybe a visual would help? Like, an example where Excel or some other program shows correct layout, and LibreOffice has incorrect?
I haven’t had much discomfort with LibreOffice and I tend to be pretty OCD and I do UI work, so … maybe I’ve just ignored it - would like to learn, though!
I prefer Google Sheets to Excel, but I still use LibreOffice Calc for everything anyway
it doesn’t feel that different than Word and Excel, tbh - I don’t know what you’re talking about
furthermore, it’s reinterpreted as a false flag or something that never really happened - there is never accountability
ContraPoints did an excellent video on conspiracy theories recently: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=teqkK0RLNkI
Question: what is the significance of /qa/, why was the board banned in the first place, and why did the hackers bring it back?
sorry, I should have clarified that I was talking about active communities (where users regularly visit and interact)
Meaning there isn’t an instance for women, nor are there multiple communities - as far as I know there’s just this one community.
this is a bit of how Blahaj works as I understand it, so it’s a good model - if anything I would think Blahaj might already be poised for this kind of instance-level protection of women
EDIT:
one of the Blahaj guidelines does include removing bigotry, including sexism, and would be a candidate for a safe space for women:
Inclusion and Acceptance
Embracing inclusion and acceptance means listening when people tell you who they are and what their needs are. It means not telling people that you know their experiences better than they do. It means not gatekeeping experiences of identities of others. It means no bigotry such as racism, sexism, anti LGBT commentary, ableism etc. It means doing your best to ensure that you don’t over-talk the voices of folk who don’t share your privileges.
That said, the women spaces on Blahaj are mostly for trans women, so a more general women’s community would be nice.
unfortunately I think this is the current answer, at least on Lemmy.
rsync is not really comparable to syncthing, it’s like comparing Excel to C++ or something. I need to be able to get lay people to install and use it, and syncthing has a UI that allows this while even I would have to do some work to get rsync to do everything syncthing is doing for me right now.
is there a more efficient alternative that isn’t centralized?
correct, see for example the reactions to the US’s decision to invade and seize territory from Mexico, which was largely seen as a betrayal of liberal values that the country was supposedly founded on. Don’t worry, the US isn’t the only country to justify their revolution with promises of liberal ideals like freedom and equality only to expose their true priorities later (namely giving local colonial elites more power than those ruling monarchs in Europe). I recommend reading the chapter on Bolivarian revolutions from the history book Born in Blood and Fire: A Concise History of Latin America for more about the disappointments and failures of liberal revolutions to live up to their promises.
