On the one hand, this does seem to be a case of spinelessness. On the other hand, having mods who are aware of the protest and also in on it is better than having them replaced. All the subs going the way of malicious compliance (ie wellthatsucks turning into a vaccum cleaner subreddit) will need mods who are in on the protest.

A thought came to my mind when reading your comment.

Instead of finding a new home, let’s make lemmy our new home. Let’s try to populate lemmy more, get its activity up, and post more than we would’ve on reddit (since we have less users, we would need more posts per user), so it can stand a chance at being a reddit competitor.

Personally, I’d like a comprehensive list of all subscribable places on here, and on other instances as well. Maybe I’m just too new and don’t currently know how to use the Jerboa app, but eh.

Yeah, mine helps me, too! I use colored markers on the back of my cards when I need to remember the pin numbers. Since I have a horrible memory due to ADHD, depression, and anxiety, this is pretty much a life saver. Especially since my numbers all have unique colors. I’ve contemplated making my own font where each letter is just a square that’s colored, but letters like M, D, and B might get mixed up. I’d have to almost “refine” their colors if I want to be able to tell them apart. I was also pretty good at spelling. :) Maybe this thing is a mini superpower. lol

Apparently for synesthetes, a few letters will likely have the same color association between people. I like the matching colors. :) So does zero not have a color for you?

Oh I don’t know whether it counts as neurodivergent in the commonly understood way, but I wasn’t sure where else to post it. I’m new, so I don’t know all the communities on here yet.

I find it interesting how only vowels and numbers stick out to you! I hadn’t heard of that before.

Yeah I didn’t realize it wasn’t normal until late high school, when I asked my best friend what her color associations were, and she just didn’t have a clue what I was talking about.

Ah, yep! Forgot to mention those. Months, as well for me.

Monday is blue like the letter M and is feminine, and motherly. Tuesday is bright yellow, masculine, and kind of young. Wednesday is dark green and is a tomboy, no idea about age. Thursday is yellow-orange, masculine, and fatherly. Friday is bright orange, masculine, and young. Saturday, dark purple and an old grandma. Sunday is baby pink, gender neutral and 20ish years old.

January is a blueish purple, cold (obviously), is feminine, and tastes like grape. February is an orangeish pink, feminine again, and tastes like citrus. March is blue and masculine, and smells like leaves. April is red and yellow, feminine and has a flowery scent. May is blue and feminine, kind of shy. June is dark purple and orange, feminine, and quite lively. July is dark purple and pink and is like the twin to June, but toned down a bit. August is rust colored, masculine, old, and a bit mean. September is magenta, masculine, young, and rebellious. October is vivid orange (didn’t see that coming, did ya? lol), gender neutral, and fun-loving. November is the color of a schoolbus, and is masculine. It’s basically Thursday, but in month form. December is light pale blue, cold, masculine, and has a gentle authoritative air about him.

There’s an experiment you can give yourself at home to get a sense of what’s a normal association for sounds and shapes. For example, you have an oval and an 8 pointed star shape. One is named Kiki and the other Bob. Which is which?

Lol! They don’t really bring up an association for me. Letters like W, J, and L eventually did, but they’re still pretty dim compared to the others.

Hi :) I’m new here (from reddit). This community is a lot more closely knit, and chill.
