I’ve had more issues with .world mods then any of the communist ones.

It’s only to input characters no one writes only pinyin except for foreigners

Yes!

Right! I don’t get the hate

That’s it!

Which method are you talking about lol

Maybe that’s what I was thinking of. The title is Wubi but I couldn’t remember the show.

There are a handful of methods of input pinyin is taught in China and Zhuyin is taught in Taiwan.

Pinyin is romanized and much easier to learn in my opinion but mashes similar sounds together in a confusing way that isn’t obvious. Zhuyin uses a Chinese derives writing system and is more accurate towards how it’s pronounced but a little more difficult to learn especially for foreigners.

There’s a good podcast episode, maybe overheard at National Geographic on the wubi method and why the creator thinks it’s the best. Essentially pre-pinyin this genius guy came up with another method of input that even today is the fasted way to input Chinese but not as easy to learn as pinyin. Pinyin also carries over some ideological baggage as China wants everyone to learn the same first language at least so the main method of learning and input is pinyin. This is annoying for dialect speakers who have to type pinyin even when the pronunciation is off like Sichuanese or not even the same language like Cantonese.

Personally pinyin is a genius system that makes the language very easy but it can also be too much of a crutch for foreigners.

Blew my mind when I learned that the Chinese i frequently works like that and that pinyin is a lie.

I’m just referring to alcohol, so no. But I will say once you hit the age where alcohol makes you feel worse it makes all tasks worse. I cannot imagine ridding yourself the joy of small tasks being enjoyable though

Go slowly. Small tasks like washing the dishes can be enjoyable when done well

Honestly this makes them worse

It’s easy to do this via cloudflare and NPM by using a wildcard a name pointed towards your local IP.

I once had a Taiwanese American tell me he wished that they did that and Taiwan would be better off 0_o

Singapore

Then you haven’t used it. The Reddit stream of 100% hate towards TikTok without understanding it is a very bad take. It provided a ton of momentum in recent US social movements.

This is actually a good point. Last time I said something good about China I was attacked on lemmy for it being censored. As if that doesn’t happen here

I see it as a positive since difference instances have different mods. I personally would make new ones on dbzer0.

This should be taught honestly. You can be a good person and want positive change without making everything your concern. It’s called compassion fatigue.

That’s an insane amount
