I just made another comment that elaborated my stance more too.
I didn't realize there was a trend of European users. I haven't really thought about it, but Lemmy could use some sort of translation layer to facilitate multi-but-not-bilingual community. There's a lot of German, French, Spanish, and Portuguese speakers I'd probably love interacting with and would never know! For now I rely on bilingual non-English natives or the little French I remember and just lurk.
I'm kind of sidestepping the point, but I think the average user will always be able to depend on the community to some degree, at least hopefully. All it takes is one savvy and willing user to support a huge section of community, bless the admins. If I'm being pedantic, most admins don't own the hardware anyway, but that's not the point. It's not even the software necessarily. If it isn't Lemmy itself, the spirit of independent web won't go away. People will be always running Tor, I2P, fedi, I'll even include crypto. The community isn't the platform, it's us.
I apologize for the uncalled-for Ted Talk.
To be optimistic, I'd hope the federation would be able to guard against deeper centralization like a more extreme .world or .ml, a la meta or whoever. There's always space for grassroots instances, and I'm pretty sure there will always be someone out there running something or with enough interest to learn.
I just whittle away at it with "eh, I probably shouldn't..." again and again. That is until I've hoarded enough interest or I'm feeling particularly impulsive
It's not a contest, but I think this one wins it for me. I haven't even scanned it yet.
An S with a / for an 8 may not be the most upsetting aspect here, but it's on the chart.

Not the way I play it. Gotta get those stars by the end of the season
I think it's a somewhat common side effect that usually goes away. I also get tension-like headaches from time to time, but I've always been like that.
Adhering to the routine of meds really helps, but ya know lol. I'd just mention the side effect and obviously look into it if it gets worse. I only had a few days of that at first with focalin, I imagine Adderall would be similar.
One thing's for sure, it's quite the post to come across on the toilet
You mean it's not pronounced teur-myan-ill?

Brother, you just made one. The answer is deep inside yourself.
