I used double spaces until a friend of my aggressively dissuaded me from doing it recently. I wasn’t trained on a typewriter but I learned it from people who were, so there you go.

There’s a noticeable generation gap between people who use 1!1!1! and the ones who would say sO MuCh tHiS! I’m not sure when it happened but I’m gonna guess you are about 35?
I just don’t understand all these ‘instances’ or whatever. Do you need a separate login/pw for all of them? I tried registering for beehaw for example but it just sits there spinning its wheels whenever i hit submit. Idk I’ll give it a chance I guess but I’m pretty underwhelmed so far. I just don’t understand why a forum to shitpost needs to be so complicated…
It has potential but the learning curve is starting to be a real drag for me. I’m confused by this setup in general and don’t particularly feel like getting a phd in lemmying just to shitpost, you know?
It’s times like this where I wish “stakeholders” had a say in the matter besides just the shareholders. I know it isn’t my company and they can do what they want, but it’s hard to just sit here watching it commit corporate suicide. It’s gone way downhill since I joined in 2008 but still.
Reddit permanently suspended all of my accounts because I said Ruth Bader Ginsburg is a cunt for not retiring when she had the chance. R/politics banned that account, and then a few weeks later I’d forgotten about that incident and commented in another post from a different account. That’s when reddit permabanned all of my accounts.
I’ve been on reddit since August 2008 when Randal Monroe published this xkcd about it: https://xkcd.com/477/

15 fucking years on that site and they ban all my accounts and devices, then third party apps, porn, and who knows what else. Good riddance.
I’m 36 and shitposting is the best part of my day! You’re never too old for some things.
