Point 2 is exactly why it is being down-voted. A post about how the Fediverse is toxic to one race/skin colour shouldn't be telling people of a different race/skin colour to "post less".

Discrimination based on race isn't welcome, no matter who it's against.

Since this is just a draft, you should change #2 to just "think before you post".

It can make sense in certain circumstances, like in BLM rallies telling white people that it wasn't our stage to speak makes sense, but telling people of a certain skin colour to "post less" in general is racist as fuck.

I mean, he seems like an unwell person who is tweeting death threats at a politician, so being detained and placed on a psych hold isn't completely out of the question.

The issue is that he wasn't charged with anything. If they charged him with uttering threats during this process, there likely wouldn't be an issue with how he was detained.

The article explains it in the second sentence, and gives further details in the third and fourth sentences.
Did you just the headline?

The start of season 21 (May 7, 2024) had 428,000ish players, right now there are 210,000ish players.

Your first line has no punctuation, so I had to guess what you meant by it. I guessed wrong.

I am able to click a link, that's how I know it was a video, but I would rather read something than listen to this guy drone on.
Videos that can be text should be, so it is easier to look into things and there isn't the barrier for anyone who is hard of hearing, or just isn't in a place where they can listen/watch a video.

I agree that you shouldn't pay for any app that doesn't format text correctly, no matter how it fails, but I think the worst offender is spoilers.

Something being left-aligned in a table instead of centre-aligned probably isn't going to destroy the intent, message, or general flow of a post.
A bot that makes posts 4 lines before you expand it but is instead always 24+ lines long, is a little jarring and disruptive. A post with a riddle, joke, or piece of trivia whose answer is displayed ruins the point.
Granted, the apps that turn ~subscript~ into ~~strike-through~~ are also shitty, but I don't see subscript being used nearly as often.

You didn't know that your post was a video?

Is there a list or transcription?

Can you also add a ticket for them to support spoilers?

Sync fails at tables, subscript, and block quote separation.

It seems to fail at spoilers, superscript, and subscript.

There are 3 apps that pass the "Does this actually display posts correctly?" test:

  • Jerboa
  • Alexandrite
  • Voyager

Everything else should be considered in a testing phase. Don't pay for an app that can't do spoilers correctly.

Edit: Don't pay for an app that doesn't format text correctly in general, but not doing spoilers correctly is probably the most jarring.
