The UK has also had multiple unelected prime ministers due to the way that the parliamentary system works.

That's... not any indicator democracy is "on the wane". In most Western European countries we don't directly vote for the one man/woman, we vote for MPs because the legislative power is in the hands of the Parliament. As long as the Parliament is made of elected MPs then democracy is working just fine.

Democracy is working just fine in China according to people who live there.

Lmao, what? You can't be serious.

Wait, are you serious?!

tbh I like W10, I grew up with 98 but the slight UI modifications of 10 (like the expanded and customizable start menu) felt necessary.

W11 however... that's a pile of shit as it is very clear it aims to be pretty to casual users more than it aims to be useful and streamlined.

To be honest according to your own data that doesn't seem good for Lemmy. Two huge instances who make up almost 30% of all Lemmy users aren't federated anymore, it seems to me it's a pretty big deal for Lemmy.

Yes but you'd get fat first.

to be honest YouTube has great content because of the video length allowed. You can find all sorts of tutorials on pretty much anything. Instagram and TikTok, on the other hand, fit your description much better.

One of my first interactions with an in-game fantasy computer GUI was Final Fantasy VIII. You had this newsletter you could read on the Balamb Garden's computers, or take the SeeD exams to improve your grade. Was really neato.
