With some I agree with, but there are also some I disagree with

I feel you. Nowadays people just don’t want to hear a no. Oneday I was out with some people I knew after work and everyone except me ordered a beer but I just didn’t want one and ordered an ice tea. But then they offered me one and I had to say again that I don’t feel like it on that day.

On an other day my brass band got invited to play on a neighborhood festival (I don’t know if that word exists but its like a big meet with all the families in a neighborhood). And because I came with my motorcycle and in switzerland there’s a rule that you can’t drink until you drive 2 years (0.0‰) I declined all offers for a beer. But there was this dad I knew from my childhood who asked like every five minutes why I don’t want a beer and I had to explain it every time.

Just accept a no. Don’t ask a second time or just offer something. You order me a beer just that I can’t decline? Not with me but hey, you have another for you.

I tried various distributions like Ubuntu, Arch, Mint, … and came to Manjaro (based on Arch) and now using it everyday on laptop and PC. Doesn’t matter if for work, programming or personal use. And the communitiy is great!

Yeah exactly. I just use it because of friends and family but I have 0 posts on it. Just checking it every day to see what other people do

I just deleted my Reddit account and will delete my Twitter too as soon as I get my data export.
Unfortunately, I’ll have to wait for Instagram, Facebook & WhatsApp until most people I know will move to a Fediverse alternative too.

how 1 letter can change the meaning of a sentence

With that setup, I would respawn after death
