KDE Plasma because I can make it look, feel and work mostly like Windows. I have to use Windows at work and don’t want to have to think too hard about differences between computers I use at work vs. at home.

mainly I would give him a hug and tell him he’s a good and worthy person because that is what he needs the most

The more time passes, the more information can already be found on the web (including forum threads) and the less need there is to post new threads to these kinds of forums.

I was born after the Berlin Wall fell, but have read a lot about it, that is why I find it so fascinating.

1988 and see the Berlin Wall (from the west obviously), travel through ghost metro stations

The best day of the year is the first day of daylight saving time (end of March). There is no day I look forward to more every year, not my birthday, not Christmas, not Easter, not a day I go on vacation: the first day of daylight saving time beats all of these.

TIL about that term, yeah that seems to be what I mean

Hold my arms in a position so that my hands grab the sides of my belly.

(which wasn’t even something I was consciously doing, but apparently it was enough to make a fellow male teenager exclaim sarcastically that I was truly standing there in a very heterosexual way)

All three of the sites you mention are big places and we have no way of telling what things you have and which you haven’t been getting exposed to.

If you’re into aviation, definitely Sint Maarten because of its airport where planes land very close to the beach.

I dislike the whole concept of “social media” in the Facebook sense.

I think the ideal form of “social media”, which was also popular in 2004, was the web forum. I want that back, not something where I have to follow people, but something where I can meet and find people with common interests and discuss those interests with them.

Apache isn’t copyleft, not sure why you thought it was

To a different license that, objectively, is not free and open source.

Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

problem is I have no idea which of these communities is “best”, I do not pay enough attention to things going on behind the scenes to have any knowledge of that.

I posted it to 8 communities because there are 8 communities I am aware of where this on-topic. Some people might be subscribed to only a subset of them. This is the natural consequence of the fediverse enabling us to have more than one community for discussing the same topic.

For example on Reddit there is an active subreddit for learning my first language (German), where learners post questions about it and I frequently answer them.

There is such a community here too, and I am subscribed to it, but hardly anyone ever posts to it, so I have nothing to respond to.

Mastodon is mainly a way to get updates from news sites, blogs, etc.
