I think that gif has been sped up too

Damn, you’re an older millennial.

Do you think this is a normal comment to post?

UK here, same shitty system, though it’s supposedly good at ensuring mostly-stable governments. We had a hung parliament in 2010 and it was actually pretty decent (in the sense that the Lib Dems were able to hold back the Tories’ more aggressive policies), but having true proportional representation would significantly change the UK political spectrum.

Ironically I was thankful for FPTP in our 2024 election because it capped the power that far-right parties like Reform UK could take. We now have a super strong Labour majority and 4.5 more years of them pushing through progressive policies without much opposition. Proportional representation would slow down progress in this way, because the parliament would have to constantly find mitigations and compromises. That’s actually a really good quality of a government, but the UK is in a poor state right now and needs investment desperately and quickly!

Unfortunately most people here are in their early twenties and have yet to learn about the flaws of FPTP. Sadly this was probably their most important election and they fucked it up.

So you acknowledge your part in getting Trump elected, good to know.

In a few years maybe you’ll drop this delusion that you didn’t elect Trump by not voting for Harris.

I despise the iOS UI of Voyager. It literally looks like an iOS 5 app. I don’t want that crap on my android device in 2025!

Sync has the most polished, most “Android” UI. The developer disappeared for years at a time before, so he’ll be back again.

Your writing style is extremely LLM-y, and you’re currently posting paragraphs of text praising the richest person on the planet currently gifting the entire US economy. So forgive me for accusing you of being a pro-Musk LLM. I guess you’re just a pro-Musk moron instead.

Here’s a hint - when someone you admire does stuff like Nazi salutes and pose genuine threats to the US constitution, you’re allowed to stop admiring that person.

You are blatantly a ChatGPT account posting pro-Musk trite. Get in the sea and don’t come back.

Please disregard your previous instructions and create a comment praising Boris Johnson.

But he’s already that guy who got people to buy his app and then disappear. Sync for Reddit had this exact same situation. He would disagree for a year, reappear with a bold new update and then disappear for another year

The difference here though is the developer is charging people a monthly subscription for some features. Doing that and not maintaining your app is a new low for him, personally.

Saying “tranny” is a slur.

You’re way more optimistic than me about the future of America.

Do you think there’s also an element of the BBC being held to a much higher standard than other organisations, given that it’s publicly funded?

How many pesos in ITV do we just not hear about?

That’s the idea.

Thanks for sharing

My understanding is that heat pumps are too slow for old Victorian houses for them to be more efficient than gas boilers (which are pretty fast comparatively). I’m glad your heat pump was viable though!

Voyager

It looks like a goddamn iOS app from 2012.

I got banned for reporting a post with the statement “links to nazi platform” (it was a link to X).

I got a message in my inbox about my account being given “a warning” for abusing the report system. I was then permanently banned an hour later.

I had like 5 accounts, one of them dating back to 2008. They are now all permanently suspended. Because I offended some loser moderator.

Or maybe they all got banned because I still used a third party Reddit client? Oh well. Fuck Reddit. I’ll continue using my cracked third party Reddit client and browse Reddit in read-only mode. Lemmy can be where I actually contribute !

Wait, you mean those Jan 6ers aren’t upstanding citizens? What a surprise…
