I mean, the only benefit this has is that someone in a wheelchair can now sit next to two people. Pulling up besides the bench always means that you’re on the end.

This wasn’t a reddit post originally, it was posted on Chinese social media and the husband was subsequently interviewed by Chinese media. It is a well documented case.

Thanks!
- Comment on Throw the baby out with the bathwater 2 weeks ago:
Look at science history for even one second, and you will see that prior to the 20th century nearly every scientific advance made was by people in religious institutions. Because those were the only ones who had the education, time and curiosity available.
- Comment on What is with these videos where it's just someone reaction to shit someone else is doing? 2 weeks ago:
I mean that’s what these people are trying to do and claiming to do, but under most jurisdictions this doesn’t hold in court
- Comment on Is there a Twitter alternative in the Fediverse where you can sort your timeline? 2 weeks ago:
There is also Foryoufeed which is very similar. It can be used at https://foryoufeed.vercel.app/login

Funny thing is, since this is Sweden, the government is the church

What? If pdf wasn’t designed to be edited, why are there pdf editors?
- Comment on Word. 3 weeks ago:
Submitting anything as an editable format like docx or odt is a bad idea. The moment a document is finished and I give it out of my hands, I turn it into an pdf.
- Comment on Loops publishes their recommender algorithm 4 weeks ago:
My main problem with Loops is that they develop webui-first. Cool, they have a “for you” feed now. But only on webui. The app is still on it’s release from start of November and doesn’t have this hugely announced feature.
- Comment on 5 weeks ago:
With the “active” sort, I regularly get posts on top of my feed that were originally made days or weeks ago, but still have discussions going on in the comments. I dont think thats a negative thing at all.
- Comment on Still relevant, hasnt changed much after 2 years 5 weeks ago:
Well no, because app users can’t use it if it is only implemented in the web UI
- Comment on Lemmy.zip & Piefed.zip Server Update December 2025 1 month ago:
Yeah, I’d echo this sentiment. Also use Voyager rather than WebUI and API bugs can be annoying.
- Comment on Europa Universalis V | Review Thread 2 months ago:
I’m actually surprised. Paradox games usually release bugged and unfinished, and all reviews from critics and players I’ve seen suggest that EUV is both really historical accurate flavoury and fun to play at release!
Good to see!

- Comment on How often do guys have a haircut? 3 months ago:
What people do in that case is look at pictures of people with various hairstyles online, trying to find one where they feel like “this looks good, I want to try that one”. Or consult with a good hairdresser when you’re there who might have some suggestions of what could fit you. Nowadays there are even apps where one can try to put various hairstyles onto their own picture.
- Comment on How often do guys have a haircut? 3 months ago:
Well, first let me say that you should go to the barber as often as you want, not as often as an average man does.
I personally go every 3 months because I have long hair and only need to get it into a bit of shape regularly. If I had a short hairstyle I would go more often.

It is accessible with your link from Central Europe. They might have slapped a geoblock onto it to disable US access?

Any of these words? Why can't we say "lava" or "from"?
- Comment on Statement on discourse about ActivityPub and AT Protocol by W3C SocialCG 4 months ago:
ATProto is open. Bluesky is not.
What we currently see is similar to how ActivityPub looked when it was first drawn up as a protocol: when 99% of users were on Mastodon GmbH's server.
The ten thousands of servers came later. And in theory ATProto is defined open enough that it is possible to implement it independently from Bluesky.
- Comment on Loops - short form video with ActivityPub - is now open source! 4 months ago:
Well, it is developed by a sole developer who also solo-develops Pixelfed. The guy spreads himself way too thin, so development moves slow.
- Comment on Top 50 news websites in the US in July: BBC drops five places as paywall introduced; Most report traffic declines. 4 months ago:
I was confused there for a second but apparently the BBC has introduced a paywall only for US users. Site is still completely free to read anywhere else, which is why I didnt even realize that there is a paywall.
Which of course means that US Americans could simply VPN their way around it..

HLL let's you play both sides, so I expect this to also do
- Comment on Is the amount of Lemmy activity declining? 4 months ago:
Fediverse Observer says Piefed MAU were 352 in May, 1068 in June and 1615 in July. So thats a rise of ~1300 people in two months.

They have already replied and I see the reply. Maybe different behaviour between Lemmy and Piefed
