  • Many thanks for your reply. I’m a Guardian subscriber so I have a vested interest in knowing they have an appropriate stance on this.

    I haven’t noticed a transphobic attitude in their journalism (International edition). Not to say it doesn’t exist, but I haven’t yet encountered it.

    I would be a bit hesitant about forming an opinion based on “opinion” pieces, in the Guardian or any publication. They’re as worthless as the bytes they’re printed on, and in the main rambling and painful to read. My take on opinion pieces (in any paper) is that they’re not necessarily representative of the views of the publication, and are frequently more negatively emotive than what an actual article would be.

    Thank you for your reply, it is appreciated.

    I wanted to know your perspective, and you told me to read the articles as they contained your perspective.

    If you’d rather give me your perspective on HeartyBeast’s comment than make me guess by playing 20 questions, it would really help things. I would much prefer that.

    If you don’t agree with the article, then why tell me to read them to get your perspective 😖

    I’m doing my best based on the information you’ve given me.





  • On my Samsung there is an accessibility button at the far right of the navigation bar. You can configure this to wake up Bitwarden and make it available to autofill (long press). Once I set that up I haven’t had any issues with autofill.

    You can pull down in the Android app to refresh, so that solves the problem in your link.



  • With Proton Unlimited, you also get stuff like per-site aliases using SimpleLogin, Proton VPN, Proton Drive, Proton Calendar and Proton Pass. But if I’m being honest, only the Mail and VPN are truly complete products.

    SimpleLogin is fantastic with a custom domain. Game changer for signing up to websites, especially if you use Bitwarden because they integrate seamlessly. I have paid Proton so the premium version is included for free. Not sure how the free version compares.




  • Well now you are a moron for cherry picking and a moron for editing comments after replies.

    Thankfully Lemmy has timestamps. My comment was edited 5 minutes before yours was made, not after:

    You seem to have a large chip on your shoulder and I’m not sure why. I haven’t said anything insulting to you, and yet the stream of vitriol continues.

    You are treating Americans as a monolith.

    I am not. The only thing I’ve done is respond to your claim that “most of us didn’t want to be in Vietnam, most of us isn’t didn’t want us to be in Iraq”, and let you know that it’s not factually correct. Most Americans did support both of those wars at the start.



  • First:

    most of us didn’t want us to be in Iraq.

    Then:

    The public supported for the war in Iraq

    What you’re saying is there was a period of time where the war had support of the public. This is what Deceptichum is saying is not normal. There should not be any period where the majority of Americans thought invading Iraq was a good idea. This part is what the problem is.


  • most of us didn’t want to be in Vietnam, most of us isn’t didn’t want us to be in Iraq.

    I think change starts by taking an honest assessment of the situation, and the statement above is easily disproven:

    It doesn’t matter that public support shifted later - of course people feel bad about doing something bad after the fact. But at the time, most Americans did want you to be in Vietnam and most Americans did want you to be in Iraq.

    I’m sure that the people in your social circle do disagree with those wars and do disagree with some of the more recent things which have happened, but you need to understand that sometimes the majority does sadly support some very bad things.
