You have a good point there, English is a quite efficient language (which gets shortened even more, like saying “o” instead of zero) and this maybe leaves less time to think.

5·17 days agoYoutube is about the last Alphabet service I knowingly use (except when someone shares a google doc).
I thought you meant no Youtube at all. I use Freetube and Newpipe almost exclusively.
Peertube too, when the instance I use to follow channels works (the two previous ones closed). It’s a pain to subscribe to stuff. Maybe with RSS feeds…edit: I’ve been subscribed to Kagi for a while too, maybe going two years. Love it. Wish it was cheaper
I really liked Qwant maps, a good use of OSM, but the idiots closed it…

7·17 days agoHow do you do that? I would love to be able to avoid YouTube. I could go without the entertainment part of it, sure. But no more tutorials would already be a big pain. And then there are the news sites with embedded videos. Even the state uses it.
YouTube has single handedly almost nullified my degoogling project

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL that one company owns Tinder, Hinge, OkCupid, Match.com and at least 40 more dating sites/appsFrançais
20·28 days agoIt’s one giant database with different filters for each website.
Other than privacy concerns, I dislike the consumption aspect. I see them swiping and it looks like they’re shopping. I know some people have found meaningful relationships on Tinder, but I can’t get over it.
I wonder if so many using it almost as the default way of dating makes it harder to find someone for those who want to avoid it.

I have had a dream a few times where I’m standing in a room such as this, choosing what I’m going to be before starting my new life.
I chose poorly.

1·5 months agoI’m happy with keepass, but I’ve always been curious about pass.
Does the browser extension work well? Is there a good solution for using it on android?

I’m the opposite in a way, I tend to look for a specific word and when I can’t find it right away it can make for awkward pauses in my speech. I’m working on it.
But when I was younger, sure, tons of filler words. It gets better
