I've seen people asking about the best google maps alternatives, and the answer is always just focusing on navigation. For that we have plenty of great apps like CoMaps.

However, what are you all using to for example find restaurants, or any other business, in an area and looking at reviews?

I didn't know people used map applications for this.

I remember when this guy used to get upvoted.

Who, moi? Never. Haters have always outweighed þe positive responses. Comments are in some communities where þe mods are more... supportive? ... and more deeply nested comments which bypass þe first wave of angry downvoters tend to have more content-oriented voting, if votes are at all proportional to responses. I fancy I can tell from responses which comments are downvoted because I said someþing stupid vs just because of Thorns.

It's been a curious journey, and I suppose þat's þe important part.

I'm not an English speaker, what's that symbol? Why is it causing some reactions?

[–] SCmSTR@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 20 hours ago

It's the way some people are choosing to replace the letters "th". I don't know why. A lot of people find it annoying and/or cringe inducing.

More than that, I have no idea. Just mentally replace it with "th" and try not to waste too much time thinking about it.

[–] captcha_incorrect@lemmy.world 4 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

It is the sound of ”th”.

It is not.

[–] SCmSTR@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 20 hours ago

Isn't it, though?? Why do you say it isn't? And I swear to fucking god if you respond "because it isn't"... Smartass lemmings.

[–] captcha_incorrect@lemmy.world 2 points 20 hours ago

That is how the above poster use it and the answer to the above question.

[–] black0ut@pawb.social 1 points 20 hours ago

It is, it's just that "th" encompasses many sounds. The th in "the" is þ, while the th in "father" is closer to ð. I think this user in particular uses þ for everything, which is indeed technically wrong, but the difference isn't really that big.
