That he tried to overthrow the election? That he refused to leave the office even though he lost, and then tried to coerce judges and others in his party to overrule the democracy?

Because that's what I'm seeing here. And thats more than serious enough. No need to twist his words around and change out the letters.

If he was talking non stop about people nagging him for years, and in the same sentence he was still refering to people who nag him all the time, and then finished with "im so tired of all the naggers", then yes. There's no reason to believe otherwise.

Also, isnt it bad enough already that he tries to overthrow the election?? Shouldnt that be the cause to alarm, not that if you change the letters, "election rigger" becomes "election n***r"??

Even if a lot of his voters are OK with it, wouldn't he still lose out on a lot of potential voters by throwing the N-word around and pissing of every non-white (and almost all white) voting american? It's inflammatory without any upside? It just makes no sense to me.

Very nice! Loving the Explore tab for finding communities, and the animations feel good!

I have a feature request: dark mode thats more of a dark gray than "amoled black". I find the contrast of white text on pitch black too much.

Edit: ...and iPad support would be awesome!

Depends on the requirements. Writing the code in a natural and readable way should be number one.

Then you benchmark and find out what actually takes time; and then optimize from there.

At least thats my approach when working with mostly functional languages. No need obsess over the performance of something thats ran only a dozen times per second.

I do hate over engineered abstractions though. But not for performance reasons.

Almost exclusively. Was doing Scala for 5+ years, followed by F# now for the past 5 years. But im also doing React and sometimes node.js etc when needed.

I really love FP, although i tend to write more pragmatic code, and follow the principle of "functional core, imperative shell" rather than using imo overly complicated free monads and the likes.
