    Yes that’s what I meant by inserting a line break. Btw you only need three hyphens.

    I’ve become pretty adept with lemmy markdown, it’s extremely useful for formatting. That’s part of why I always use Lemmy-UI, because some apps still don’t display the formatting properly

    Amazing that we are already up to 0.19.9 and on the verge of version 1.0.

    The project has come a long way since 0.17.4, when I first joined. Sometimes it felt like it was taking a long time but looking back it seems like it went so fast. Thank you so much to all contributors, especially Dessalines and Nutomic.

    There is still much more to be done, but I also think it’s good to reflect on how far we have come.

    Very nice to see the fix for the spoiler bottom margin, I have been inserting line breaks after spoilers to alleviate that issue for quite some time.

    Interesting story but it’s also talking about how inflation was at 80% in Brazil in the 1980s, because they were printing money. What they did in 1993 with the URVs is a fascinating psychological experiment, but I’m not sure if it was the critical factor in stopping inflation. As per the article

    It wasn’t the only trick, obviously. While they put URVs in place, the group of economists made the government balance its budget and slow down on money creation.

    So I feel like it was basic economic policy that mostly worked, rather than printing money and trying to dictate its value.

    Uhhhh, hexbear is supposedly like 20% trans or something. They have preferred pronouns baked into the software. Tankies on Lemmy vocally love trans people.

    You don’t actually have any rational explanation for what it is that is problematic about Nutomic, it’s just something you heard somewhere and are blindly repeating.

    I have a very long track record on Lemmy of opposing tankies, so the accusations of being a tankie apologist are easily disproven. At least for those who care enough to actually do their own research, instead of simply parroting whatever gossip happens to float into their ears.

    First of all, that has absolutely no bearing on whether or not Nutomic is a tankie. So I’m assuming you concede that you were completely wrong about that.

    Second of all, that’s a screenshot of a private message.

    What specifically bothers you about what he said there?





  • IIRC that was an automated function that wasn’t always intentional. Unfortunately I can’t find the thread where I heard that. I believe it had something to do with a specific version of Lemmy though.

    I’ve seen all the screenshots, c/meanwhileongrad is on my server. But many of those incidents have a lot of context that isn’t captured by the screenshots, when you look more closely
