Such mentality likely has to do with the environment. I read some that strategy games are more popular in Northern Europe than in Southern Europe, with the explanation that strategic planning is more essential for survival when the amount of sunlight is limited and there are months were you can’t really go outside because of snow and coldness.
That would mean adverse conditions require it more to plan for the future. Coldness is indeed just an example for such an environment.

scrolling through the list of emojis when good ol’ emoticons do the trick
That’s why they usually have a search integrated or even quick access for the ones used lately. Lemmy’s emoji picker will give you 🥶 if you search for “cold”, “frozen”, “freezing” or “frost”, though not for “ice”.

Order matters. In languages with more redundancy that would work:
Ein Mann sieht einen Hund
subject verb object
Einen Hund sieht ein Mann
object verb subject
But even there it breaks if you switch the articles, though there languages with a lot higher redundancy than German. The less analytic a language is the better that works. Analytic has less forms, but requires a more rigid structure.

plenty of places where housing is still affordable
There are even places where people would give you houses nearly for free, but nobody wants to live there and the infrastructure is crap.

Animated emojis are also exclusive to nitro, but super react is more animated effects that can be combined with any emoji

Tbh it’s good if one can do without the pro features. That gives one more freedom to support them or not.

Animated emojis are also nitro exclusive. And you can boost “server”, which unlocks more customizations for “servers”.

security deposits
That’s the word I was actually looking for. But reading a bit about security deposits and non-refundable deposits, they are two very different things. The first is a security like the name implies and credit scores have a similar purpose, they want to be sure that you are able pay. Non-refundable deposits are essentially just fees that are paid even when you back out of the rental contract and don’t move in.

Do you have no rental bonds? It’s quite common here to have a rental bond up to three times the monthly rent, but you get that back at the end if there are no disputes about damages or payment default.

Opt-out systems are never a proper choice. You don’t choose where you get born. You need to learn the language of that country, move somewhere there, find a job there and get citizenship. That all costs money and time, some countries only give you citizenship after you live there 20 years. As long as you don’t switch citizenship, you still need to pay income tax and probably other things, some taxes like VAT immediately changes and are not tied to citizenship.
Somalia has taxes, though they might struggle to enforce their income taxes. It’s unlikely that there is any country without any kind of tax or a catch. Some have no income tax or VAT because that look good on paper, but then have a tax that acts similar or you basically have to buy citizenship.
