I see, notification problems are often caused by battery optimization, which can be turned of, but if the features are not your jam I see the issue.

I use it it the way, that each task gets a card with date etc., and I have three lists: urgent, to do, and done, and when I complete a task I drag and drop it to “done” so I have a list of what I “achieved” which makes me quite happy sometimes.

Nextcloud decks is great if you have access to an instancd

Your sooooo confidential wrong my kid, the word is from European slavers before the US even existed as a state, go read some history books before you post.

-.-

Yeah sure you think the US is the reference for all of us, you dont even bother looking that my instance ending which is .de, you claim there are is not even a fraction of a percent not living in the US without any evidence, you falsely claim terms are from US which aren’t and you just fire only bad faith discussion and slurs, defending the use of words which are racial slurs nearly everywhere on the world because you obviously know nothing of history and colonialism yet you think the I am the ignorant one.

I really hope you are a troll or a minor, otherwise I would have to feel bad for someone so confidential wrong, as you just have to had no education and never read a book.

P.S: if you are not a troll and willing to learn, maybe read some spivak (can the subaltern speak) or Gramci (prison notebooks)

Then you maybe get of your high horse and see why people like me are trying to change hegemonial culture instead of boot licking like you

Or st least open Wikipedia once, and you will see the word was used to discriminate in the 16 hundreds while the US was founded in the 17. Hundreds.

The Information is no secret, you just choose to ignore it

German wiki, but I am sure your native language is available as well https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neger

Are you completely braindead?

Yes it comes from the european word you mentioned which just meant all blacks, WHICH WAS USED AS A SLUR AT THE TIME!

Thats exactly the point, it is a word from a time where people where just openly racist AF and a black skin color was sinonimous with “deserves to be enslaved, subhuman, animal” BECAUSE EUROPEANS AT THE TIME THOUGHT THAT ABOUT ALL BLACK PEOPLE!!

SO THE WORD MEANS BOTH: “ALL BLACKS” AND “SUBHUMAN PIECE OF SHIT”

THAT’S EXACTLY WHY DECENT PEOPLE DONT USE IT!!!

An actual agreement in an political online discussion, I can’t believe it.

Made my day

Cheers to you good sir

You are clearly a very mislead or purposely malicious person

Didn’t know either bit to quote op:

I do agree with you, it is a very derogatory and offensive word. But given the context and the timeframe the joke letter refers to, why bother censoring it out altogether? At least Lemmy caught and auto-censored the transcribed text I posted.

Ofc facists around the world influence each other, but thinking Americans invented it? You ever heard of colonialism? Where the n word was invented? Yeah that’s a European invention not american.

Understandable take, although op stated he didn’t remove it in the body text, it was automatically removed by Lemmy

If they dont contextualize, yeah

In my personal opinion a good way would be to contextualize it, for example in the Body text:

“Here is an old text I found, it contains a nasty slur I dont endorse in any way but I leftbit in for historical accuracy”

Its not uncritically using a slur or editing out, there is a middle ground

Are you dumb or just uninformed?

At least here in germany the Nazis heavily used it and gassed blacks, no american influence need to make decent people avoid it.

Yeah, we are in agreement that you can talk in private the way you want, if all are concensing adults.

You know how your friends are, they know how you are and how you mean it.

Possible that they reacted that way, because they know you and know you are not a (purposely) racist person and mean them no harm.

Saying things in public is a different story though. We know nothing about you, for all I know you could be the biggest racists just trying to find excuses to post racist shit.

After reading all your comments this possibility seems quite small to me, but I took effort to come to that conclusion.

A white supramacist could read your post and get the sense, that others are like him and agree with him that using that slur is ok.

So I think many would appreciate it if you at least distance yourself from the word, so its clear you dont endorse it (what you did in the comments after being asked about it).

That’s my 2 cents

So if I tell that story to my friends, without contextualizing, it wouldn’t normalize the usage of that word?

Or is the difference for you that he posted a photo, not just the text?

True, but it would be nice to add that you dont want back to this ugly time if you choose to post such slurs, as this is sadly not a far Ben anymore in most parts of the world

First of all: I appreciate your calm and unemotional response, I really do, this is not the norm online, and my initial comment was quite snarky, so thank you for that.

To the matter at hand: I think you misunderstand me if you think I am stating cencorship (I would rather call it editing, but that’s irrelevant) as the only viable or even my preferred option.

I just think dropping it without context is not the way, a short comment “I condemn/dont like the usage of slurs in this post but left it in for historical accuracy” in the body text would be my preferred way of dealing with it, this would be possible with an edit, no repost needed.

Its okay to not be of the same opinion, especially because I am not being discriminated with the word, my opinion doesn’t matter as much as the oppinion of people actually discriminated against.

If you choose to drop the n-bomb without distancing yourself from it, I will choose to write snarky comments criticizing it, not more, not less.

No bad blood here, I wish u a wonderful day as well :)

Broo, is this a new strategy by Russian bots? second n-bomb in this community in one day, wtf.

Also looking at your profile you are a white middle aged american man with a truck, so not the kind of person who is discriminated with that word, so you getting buthurt for being called out for it paints a picture.

I chuckled about the most part, I commented about the part I see critical.

Let’s look at an extremer and therefore clearer example: If I post a picture of my bookshelf, with mostly fun novels but also “mein Kampf” in it, without contextualizing or stating that I dont agree with it and have it for example for research purposes, it just normalizes having “mein Kampf” in ones bookshelf. Doesn’t matter if I am a Nazi or not, if I post Nazi stuff, I should get downvoted.

Stating that I am not the original author and the book is from a time where being a Nazi was a good thing doesn’t make it better.

Same goes here, although less dramatic.

And yeah, if someone at a party makes racist jokes, I call him out for it, I would rather be a buzzkill than an enabler.
