@nev I find that disappointing too, particularly because it's not very good for programming either...
The first live performance at the Gran Teatre del Liceu opera house in Barcelona, newly reopened after coronavirus lockdowns. A string quartet gave a performance of Puccini’s Crisantemi to an audience of 2292 plants. As you can see from the pictures, it was a full house, because plants have excellent taste, obviously. The plants were later adopted by healthcare workers.
As of a several years ago (the last time I did measure it), in Quebec, nearly everyone* had their system language in English, but that was definitely not a meaningful sign that they preferred content in English, rather that they preferred _not a broken experience_.
I'm sure it has improved, but the widely held perception is that setting your system in a language other than English === a generally broken experience.
Under communism, everyone's social media gimmick will be assigned by the Central Personal Branding Committee. Gone will be the days where multiple accounts attempt to be the "Marmaduke Nerd", instead, a commisar will inform you that from now on you must hyperfixate on Norm from Cheers or nematodes or what have you, ensuring an even spread of content.

Hello, ~ fediverse ~.
I'm getting active on here again and I wondering if anyone has suggestions of folks tootin' about:
local stuff : #québec, #canada, #montreal #toronto
city stuff: #transit, #urbanism, #planning #numtot banter
politics: international, #uspol, #canpol, #qcpol
right now I have a lot of #queer and #tech content on my timeline but frankly more is always good.
Do replies show up as comments or something?
