    I use Jebora and am happy, is there something important I’m missing? I was a Reddit is Fun user before and I like both because of how simple and basic they are. I hated the official reddit app for the reasons above.

    Edit: the one thing I don’t like is you can’t, or I don’t know how, to collapse all child comments.


  • Dear Germans, When someone had a grandfather who was Turkish that doesn’t make their german born descendants Turkish… They are german.

    Dear brits, The Indian guy who’s grand parents were born in Britain… he’s not “the Indian guy”, he’s brittish.

    Dear French, French is not a skin color. It’s a nationality. A black guy can be French too.

    With contempt

    Immigrant descendents in Europe.

    The thing about people’s roots is it’s complicated, messy, and not only an American problem. More compassion and understanding goes a long ways.


  • It is easy to find many other sources with the same statistics. These as I understand them are people who speak 2 languages and not people who have simply learned some of a second language. There are a lot of American people speaking Spanish in the US, of course there are also for example, 1.5 million who speak vietnamese.

    This is broadly true with white Americans when their immigrant background is there already for generations… but a huge part of america does not even speak English at home. America is a melting pot of people from everywhere in the world and they naturally bring their languages, food, and culture with them. It is easy to forget, especially when only looking at specific demographics of a diverse country.
