The simple version is that color blindness is caused by a physical problem with your eyes. If you don’t have the parts required to detect certain colors then no glasses are going to fix that. They’re just tinted glasses, the guy in the video tries three different pairs from different companies and all they do is tint the world a hideous shade of pink/magenta.

As someone else said above, what they can do is change your ability to differentiate between objects of slightly different colors. You might have a really hard time telling the difference between red and green, but find it easier to tell the difference between hideous vaguely reddish magenta and hideous vaguely greenish magenta. They don’t grant you a greater range of color vision, but they do change what color is actually hitting your eyes. Mostly into hideous magenta.

FWIW the guy in the video points out that in his experience it generally made colors harder, not easier, to differentiate.

I understand that the reddit one was created in a different time, but I feel like in 2023 there’s no excuse for making the name of your general womens’ forum overtly transphobic

I’m disappointed I missed the chance to get one of these. It seems like such a cool thing. I’m holding out hope that they’ll revisit the idea someday.

That does sound like a good idea, kind of like Reddit’s old multireddit function.

There could be different linux communities on different instances, and to see them all you’d have to subscribe to them and sort by subscribed view. But yeah, in practice most of the time there will emerge one “main” linux community and, if it gets big enough, likely offshoot communities for different philosophies or more specificity.

As far as I know, not yet.

yeah, over on hexbear comms is the usual parlance anyway. the wider lemmy population with the new reddit people might change that though

They’re communities. And the different servers/sites are instances.

Yup, there’s no way they can’t just hide specific instances from the list. And they really should. The only explicitly NSFW instance being an explicitly pedo instance is a really bad look. Exactly the wrong kind of early reddit vibes.

the way it is cited

The way that it isn’t cited*

That’s just not how citing sources works lol

Where in the article did you find that link?

Just saying that someone said something is not citing a source. They taught us this in elementary school.

Literally 0 sources anywhere and literally invokes 1984

Liberal propaganda is so fucking lazy. Y’all realize this is way closer to what 1984 was actually about right?

I don’t want leftist fanatics

Too bad nerd we’re already here and we will cleanse you of your brainworms. Please do not resist.

Nah, they’re fascists. Maybe not every republican, but a solid 70% or so of them. And a decent chunk of democrats too.

Go back to reddit where you belong, reactionary

I love it when people get banned but somehow they’re still commenting on the same post which got them banned with absolutely no problems. Sounds like a very real ban.

Liberapay is much preferred

Maybe you should make that more obvious on the page somehow? Like make Liberapay a bigger button that’s separate from the rest, or just outright say in the text that it’s preferred? Because as someone with no preference between them and considering supporting, I probably would have gone with Patreon out of inertia/recognition.
