I didn’t realize! I thought in this context lede was the only correct spelling, I suppose I should thank Cunningham’s Law for learning something

(just fyi, it’s “buried the lede”)
You’re of course correct in English, I just wanted to share that the currency sign goes after the value in many other languages, so it’s an easy mistake for ESL people to make.
While you are probably correct that criticism of the USA (and of its citizens) pops up too often in unrelated topics, I think that you are basically just discovering what it is to not be the ultra dominant demographics on a platform. It doesn’t mean it’s right or anything, everyone should strive to make Lemmy a welcoming place, but it’s certainly going to take work on both sides. That said, I would like you to re-read some of what you wrote:
and their obvious jealousy and insecurity regarding Americans
For one thing, my command of the English language rules that out, which isn’t something I can say about many of you.
America controls the world, and Europeans are salty about it. I didn’t even realize how salty until I started using Lemmy
I swear to God I’ma start criticizing the metric system again
The amount of condescension dripping from your comments is frankly off the chart, and you should maybe take a minute to ponder whether you are actually behaving as you preach, rather than just being in your own American circlejerk, as you might have called it had the shoe been on the other foot.
In any way, being an admin/mod is a thankless task, so I for one appreciate you for doing that, and maybe everyone can learn a bit from sharing a community.
Correct, no comma before the last element if it is preceded by a conjunction (e.g. “et”, that is “and” in English) in French
Speaking English using French vocabulary is a real cheat code
It depends on where. In Paris itself, the metro network is quite a bit denser than the tube, but as soon as you exit the city limit and get into the “petite couronne” municipalities, it quickly drops off in density.
None of these are in the UK? Maybe take a second to check the context of the meme before jumping to conclusions
Is Belgium also a surprising exception?
Nice work
I find it an excellent scout as long as you were not planning on being quiet anyway. Can even cast some kind of crowd control spell through it before ever being in danger, if the situation allows.
J’utilise du us_intl depuis un moment maintenant, dans l’ensemble je trouve ça mieux que le QWERTY ou AZERTY standard, mais il y a quand même quelques défauts : le " compose pour les tréma, mais 99% de mon utilisation est pour la touche en elle même, par exemple.
Well apparently your spelling was perfectly fine, and neither of us were aware both spelling were acceptable, so we both learned something
