Those are some well made tutorials!

Internet is going to be internet, but this place is like 10% as adversarial as reddit from my experience so far. I haven't even had anybody DM me to end myself yet. At reddit I got those for saying my favorite game was Total Annihilation.

Less true in other languages. Twitter was big in Japan where 140 chars goes a bit further.

It's also one of my favorites.

I think your assessment is optimistic.

Hey thanks, I do lean a little hard on the self deprecating humor sometimes.

Reddit has been getting worse for years, and the comments there are so adversarial and insincere.

Users definitely can get sick of bad sites, what happened with X shows that. Their user base is a small fraction of what it was a few years ago.

I'm definitely liking it here though!

They care about money. If they don't go alone with it they probably get fined. So yeah, I think they will.

And it's not uncommon. Lots of countries don't call other countries by their names. Japan is Nihon. China is Zhōngguó. Germany is Deutschland.

But those are for historical reasons, changing it specifically to be different is nuts.

 

Hey! It's my first post!

I have a few websites that are hosted in the USA. I'm going to move them all to Canadian hosts. I'm looking for recommendations for hosting companies in Canada that are owned by Canadians. I've look at a few but first hand experience is always welcome.

Most of my sites are just basic html/css/javascript but one of them is a wordpress storefront. I specifically need the Wordpress site to be as fast as possible - a difficult task for wordpress, I know.

Also, glad to see this community! Great stuff!
