- Comment on Why do so many people delete their posts? 2 weeks ago:
Aah that's kind. I didn't know that one. Thought it was some sort of formatting gone wrong.
Thanks, I appreciate it.

Are you mad, Jo?
- Comment on Do you care about up/down votes? 2 weeks ago:
It's much the same. Lemmy and PieFed talk to each other no worries.
It does all the same things but has some additional features as well. The killer feature for me is merging duplicate posts so you only see them once but with all the comments stacked underneath.
- Comment on Do you care about up/down votes? 2 weeks ago:
I prefer to see both numbers rather than the sum. The variance sort of gives a 'controversial' score. Can't get that with PieFed yet, but I prefer the deduplication of PieFed over the split scores on Voyager.
- Comment on Why do so many people delete their posts? 2 weeks ago:
I've done it a few times over the years. Usually it's because I've written something I thought was funny or insightful but the hive mind disagreed and voted it down or worse. Sometimes I just don't fit into the social norms.
- Comment on KDE targets Windows 10 'exiles' claiming 'your computer is toast' 2 weeks ago:
I remember years ago there was a copy of Linux that you could install on a Windows drive and it'd run even though it was on the NTFS drive.
One of the big challenges for migration is presumably having to take all your data off your C drive blow it away, install Linux then put all your files back. A version that would happily reside on NTFS and just give Windows the heave-ho might be an easier option for n00bs.

.. And now on the PWA the username it shows is my new one, and all comments visible. I think Interstellar needs more work.
- Comment on Does anyone use a phone without a protective case? 2 weeks ago:
Just trying interstellar on PieFed. Says 119 comments but only see four. Also not sure what profile name it'll use as I have two on one email address.
No case. Dropped and cracked my screen after 15 months. Ordered a new screen on mobilehq and will install next week. I prefer the lightness and the soft back of my g84.

You're probably right. Unicode things are usually hollow.

I wonder if it's just a unicode character that was replacing a weird accent mark instead of a '

When you won Solitaire, Windows would do this to the cards deliberately.
- Comment on End of 10 is a campaign to move people over to Linux with Windows 10 support ending 5 weeks ago:
Funny that Debian and Fedora were the only two distros that worked on my laptop. (dual GPU, others booted to black screen after install.) Debian hasn't grenaded itself yet :)

From Australia, I'm gonna need a decent boat and a lot of days. Or a plane.

Yes. Brings some doubt to the post. Semi illiterate yet professional? On the other hand, it is on a Mets platform...
