  • What are your favorite RSS feeds?

  • Has anyone here learnt to draw at a later age, like 30+? What has been your experience and process?

    Jump

  • For sure! It'll probably be a while though haha.

  • Planning on following that! Just waiting on my fineliners

  • What is a good alternative to proton mail these days?

  • Kolabnow is great.

  • TikTok, RedNote and the Crushed Promise of the Chinese Internet

  • At the same time, China is a more united place than Europe which consists of various countries with their own economy and culture. And to be fair, some countries have had their fair share of tech giants, like Spotify, Klarna or Ericsson from Sweden for example.

  • Very interesting, thanks for sharing

  • That's awesome! I also bought a tablet some year ago for unrelated reasons and went with a Galaxy Tab S9, which seems to be a great tablet for drawing too. So I've been thinking why not. Gonna start on paper first though.

  • TikTok is offline in the U.S. after Supreme Court upholds ban

    Jump

  • What I find mad is that people are seriously depressed about this on /r/Tiktok. Yeah sure, I understand small creators now having a tough time having their business disappearing, but people are literally saying that TikTok was their only source of information and that they don't know what to do now??

  • Duolingo sees 216% spike in US users learning Chinese amid TikTok ban and move to RedNote

    Jump

  • Yes, as any resource it shouldn't be discarded completely, but there are always much better resources out there which for me makes Duolingo a time waster. Even if I would start anew with another language. It's an app made by a company who doesn't care about learning or languages, they just want to make people to stay for as long as possible on the app and pay for stuff like to restore their streak. Especially now since they've started using AI to generate content

  • Yeah good luck with this on Duolingo lol. I'm years down the line and also having studied full-time over there, still far from "fluency".

  • Why are we expected to keep up with the news on a daily basis?

  • Which one?

  • This looks really great. How's the quality of the journalism? And what political leaning do they have?

  • I love Actual. So, so good. I cancelled YNAB in favor and can't ever think of going back. Aside from not having to pay $100 a year you're also not supporting the Mormon Church (YNAB is a Mormon-run company).

  • What's the weirdest place you've slept?

    Jump

  • Awesome link. Thank you for sharing

  • What resources do you recommend for an adult wishing to relearn math?

    Jump

  • On a related note, what math should one know? Are there any upsides to go beyond everyday math? To brush up on lost math skills? I've forgotten most of my math classes, as I wager most have...

  • Why do people on reddit seem to hate Lemmy/Mbin/other federated link aggregators?

    Jump

  • Even if it's not as popular, I'd say the community might still be more solid in some cases. And that people are more responsive, especially with quality answers. I've noticed you're chastised way more on reddit if you ask a "stupid" question.

  • What RSS feeds do you follow and why?

    Jump

  • Cool idea!

  • What RSS feeds do you follow and why?

    Jump

  • Yeah, I've been using OpenRSS to get the RSS feed of e.g. APNews, but it's such a sad state of affairs that it feels like RSS is disappearing
