Useful for carrying massive things every single day, completely useless for all other purposes.
I noticed that car owners never use their cars to their fullest potential. You have all this additional space just being permanently unused, which just worsens highway traffic. Not to mention all the additional pollution you're now responsible for because that big ass car is not an EV.
Just get a regular sized car if you don't wanna bother transporting 3 grand pianos to the same two places every single day. Oh wait, now you have to retune them too.
A lot of people worldbuild when they daydream and have the bones of a story kicking around in their brain, but have to pay the bills and raise the kids etc so they never flesh it out and write it down. What's your story's premise? Fantasy, sci-fi, alternate history, mystery, western, whatever genre.
I couldn't really think of anything other than an autobiography, or ANOTHER science fiction story set in space (with fish and Toki Pona this time around, and four girls as the protagonists). Actually, I prefer that last thing to be an animated cartoon than a novel.
I first joined Lemmy back during the big Reddit exodus of last year. I like many others wanted an alternative to Reddit, and I thought that this might've been the one. I made two accounts, one on lemmy.world and another on sh.itjust.works, in the June of last year that I used on and off for about 4 months....
I'm actually glad I'm not that active on the platform (or any platform for that matter, federated or not), so I can give myself time to breathe in outside air and touch some grass.
And once I am active, it's usually for a couple hours at most, then it's back to being in my coma for a few days.

First of all, it's hard to pronounce if you don't speak French. Second of all, it sounds bad if you do speak French. And lastly, it's WAY less cute. It actually genuinely sounds disgusting now.
Nope, it has been ongoing since 2013. From Adobe stopping physical sales of Creative Suite, to the Xbox One being announced, to Apple flattening iOS to the point of it looking like ass, the enshittification has started at this point in time. And their excuse was to be "more modern", my ass.
I basically did the exact opposite. I never press the upvote/downvote button, but I almost always leave a comment on the page whenever I have something interesting to say. I even reply to the replies I get. I have carried this behavior forward to Lemmy.
And yeah, I was actually active in quite a few subreddits, that is, until the whole API thing happened.
Participate in Eurovision I reconsidered after the terrible events of the edition that happened this year. And I had massive plans too. Who wouldn't wanna hear symphonic metal in this thing?
Also, as a Moroccan, representing Morocco would be the last thing I would do, even though they don't compete anymore, but still.

The work bathroom is currently a warzone, on their phone speakers people like to play music, play games at full blast, and one guy likes to chill to ambient rainforest.

I'm not even connected to my so called "homeland" anymore. I desperately wanna leave, but visas are making it incredibly hard. And since there's a huge Moroccan diaspora basically everywhere (which the locals are tired of), I will get lumped together with them against my will.

I especially remember playing the Flash version of Sugar Game a while back, it was my earliest memory of that guy. But yeah, that game specifically wasn't my favorite, but it was still pretty nice especially with the calm soundtrack that plays in the levels.
Well, the difference is the fact that everyone agrees that they're different languages. It's not like comparing English to Scots (is it just a weird dialect of English? Or is it distinct enough to be its own language?), or comparing all the different dialects/languages/[idfk anymore] of Serbo-Croatian to each other, especially if they're all written in the Latin script (in Serbia, you have the option of using the Cyrillic script, but not everyone does it anyway).
