Well done you. Take my updoot (do we call them updoots on here?).

By the power of Greyskull, and fuck spez.

It's also quite pertinent given the prevalence of feddit.(country code) instances of Lemmy, eg feddit.uk, feddit.de etc.

By the power of editing clarification I shall smight thee in twain.

But for the record this is all cracking fun.

"alright geez, giz a skone"

"Good evening my good man. My name is Lord Ponsonby Smythe Smythe Smythe. Could I trouble you for one of those skons?"

Works both ways.

Edit: my friend, who I am currently drinking pints with, says "skon is more northern but posh and scone is more estuary".

And he's an expert and a cunt (his own description of himself).

But I am common as muck. I haven't met an H I haven't dropped and I'm proper Bermondsey and Millwall. And it's a "skone". In fact the only people who call it a "skon" in my experience in deepest darkest Saaaaaaaf Laaaaaaandaaan are posh cnuts.

Spock has a cat. Your argument is invalid.

I'll bite.

It's a "skone". Clue is in the fact it's spelt "scone", ie just substitute the K for a C. It it was a skon it would be called a scon.

Those are fediverse toilets. If you shit in one of them it will be available in the other one too.

This is the way.

Ah, now you're reminding me of the Woolies quandary back in the day. Buy pick and mix or save up for a 1.99 Mastertronic Speccy game. Which were, with one or two exceptions, invariably utter shit. Should have gone for the sugar fix.

Maybe we should be a bit more, well, casual?

I occasionally got frustrated with how trigger happy the mods over at the Place That Shall Not Be Named were on CasualUK. Posts that promoted some fun discussion and were upvoted after the first couple of minutes of them going up were still deleted and deemed as "moaning" or "low effort".

Perhaps a clearer definition of "low effort" might be "it took you 10 seconds and everyone ignored it", and rather than a ban against moaning, perhaps we might ban "boring moaning". If the moan is entertaining, satirical, prompts engagement it should be left alone.

Just my 2p's worth.

I can't have at it, that's the problem, that's what I'm looking for help with. If I try to sign up the progress spinner never stops and there are errors about closed websockets in my browser developer console. That's what I'm seeking help on.

(in terms of propagation, there are ancient posts in c/cricket@lemmy.ml that I can see via lemmy.world but not on my "home" instance of feddit.uk. In fact on feddit.uk c/cricket@lemmy.ml appears entirely empty and has for several days).
