I know the real answer is reddit but I really don’t want to go back now that I’ve already grown used to life without it. I was hoping for Lemmy to be a viable substitute but it isn’t. I can see how this place is wonderful for the certain type of person but that person is not me. My experience during the past 6+ months has...
I’m bored of reading how Linux is better than windows, how matrix is better than discord, how foss is better than proprietary etc etc. I didn’t even mind but it’s always the same things everyone says… so anyway I want to hide comments that mention those words I already did it for posts but can’t find an option for...

Used a couple of US recipes recently and most of the ingredients are in cups, or spoons, not by weight. This is a nightmare to convert. Do Americans not own scales or something? What’s the reason for measuring everything by volume?
