Yep, I regularly switch between three languages, and one is a complex format. No complaints whatsoever.

Heliboard is also an excellent option. The best multilingual keyboard IMO is the highly underrated AnySoftKeyboard. It is built from the ground up, so it is very different from the AOSP Keyboards and can be a little bit of an adjustment. Development also seems dormant.

(FUTO, Heli, Simple, Fossify, GBoard, etc are all built on AOSP. I think Florisboard is also built from the ground up, although it’s not yet feature complete)

Heliboard is easily the best fully open source keyboard.

Others have said this too, although I’ve never had any issues with it. I mostly use the voice input, regular typing, and predictive text, so maybe I just don’t use swipe enough to notice.

Lol this has been on FUTO forever. It has better voice typing, too, and its all on-device.

I guess I missed the day in history class when they talked about the Warsaw Ghetto firing hundreds of thousands of rockets at civilians, murdered babies, beheaded people and repeatedly vowed to drive every last German into the sea for 50 years.

Fair enough. Assad was fighting ISIS, and he was still a genocidal maniac. Of course, Israel has a long way to go before they come anywhere close to that level of killing.

I don’t really get how the bad guys are a country fighting the literal Muslim Brotherhood who continue to hold American citizens and many others hostage for 529 days.

Hey, I’ve got unpopular opinions. No, it’s usually someone who is trolling.

It’s far from perfect but of the people I’ve seen, they are usually so bad that they are damaging dialogue, not fostering it.

Usually it’s eventually reversed if they are not a troll. People here are pretty decent and upvote most things.

I started out with an old laptop then eventually “upgraded” to a refurbished office surplus desktop. I highly recommend starting out on a project PC as a sort of proof of concept before investing any money into it. Even hosting the family media libraries, I have never had an issue with streaming video, etc. even with pretty dated hardware.

I think there might still be one or two apps that show a total.

Some communities use a “santabot” to auto-ban accounts with more downvotes than upvotes. I’ve never seen it happen to someone who didn’t deserve it.

Good moderation eliminates trolls pretty quickly. Admins are incentivized to respond to users’ concerns rather than a profit motive. Some communities do have a minimum account age for certain actions, and some instances require a real email address and IP address to join/participate.

Trolls are bots are rare on Lemmy. They are the norm on reddit.

Exactly - Reddit specifically and intentionally uses dark patterns to reinforce the importance of karma at every turn. The first interaction that someone has with Reddit is usually “you don’t have enough karma to post/comment/vote in this subreddit.” There are secret communities and public awards for high karma earners. There is a frontpage dedicated to rapid karma-earning posts. There is no disincentive for karma farming reposts, and subreddits are actually punished for reducing reposts. Karma is commoditized.

Here the votes still matter, but the algorithm is public and users can and do sort in a variety of ways to discover new and relevant content. There is no single “front-page”

Saving this for later. Great list!
