Oh, my bad, I have indeed confirmed that all nouns are capitalized in German… what I meant is that I’m not sure if that’s the reason why English also does it (sometimes).
But thanks for the *confirmation! :)
From Beagle Bros - Wikipedia:
Beagle Bros was an American software company that specialized in creating personal computing products. Their primary focus was on the Apple II family of computers. Although they ceased business in 1991, owner Mark Simonsen permitted the Beagle Bros name and logo to be included on the 30th anniversary reboot of I. O. Silver, released on December 12, 2014 by former Beagle programmer Randy Brandt.
Found via reverse image search:
I have read that it was influenced by German capitalization rules; all nouns are capitalized in German. But I never checked if that’s true.
Link for those on old.lemmy.world:

Hm. Strikethrough isn’t working?
or is it the link breaking things?If you are on mlmym (old.lemmy.world), Strikethrough does not work. It works on the default UI https://lemmy.world/comment/1936920

Best part:
(…) Brecht’s team even taught the rodents to play hide and seek. At the beginning of the game, a rat was enclosed in a box while a researcher hid somewhere in the room. The researcher then opened the box using a remote control, allowing the animal to jump out and begin “seeking.” When the rat successfully found the hidden scientist, it was rewarded with—you guessed it—a tickle. The rats were also given the opportunity to hide while the researchers looked for them, and they proved to be especially good at coming up with creative hiding spots. Their ability to strategize was “almost spooky,” Brecht recalls.
(…) Brecht’s team first made sure the rats were comfortable with their new playground, aka a dimly lit plastic box, as well as their human playmates. The researchers then played games of “chase the hand” and tickled and the animals on their backs and bellies (see video (…) for an example from a previous experiment). In response to the tickling, the rats shimmied in delight and let out endless “giggles.”
I use jscher2000/Save-webP-as-extension to make it bearable:
Firefox extension to overlay format and JPEG quality buttons on inline or stand-alone images for quickly saving a converted version of the image.
I gave it a try on this comment.
I don’t know of any explicitely intentional dyslexic-unfriendly fonts, but from what I read on Adding A Dyslexia-Friendly Mode To A Website — Smashing Magazine, thin narrow fonts with ligatures should be good candidates, some examples I found from a quick search:

FYI: with the script User Details on Hover you can also see karma in Lemmy. Example.
From what I understand, there are technical issues with this. Allowing people to hide the karma if they want is easy. But blocking people for seeing karma even if they want is much harder. Note that if you want karma for posts and comments (to be able to sort the most voted ones), then the user karma is just a very easy query away (just sum the karma of that user’s posts and comments). EDIT: I realize that this would not solve the issue either:
There are technical ways to do anonymous and auditable voting, but I think that would be too overkill for the fediverse.
Try this link: https://files.catbox.moe/xk1ywd.jpg
javascript:location.href=location.href+‘&sp=CAASAhAB’;
In firefox, you can also add a keyword to this shortcut (e.g.:
yt):https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%s&sp=CAASAhABThen you can use it from the search bar like
yt testingand it will redirect you to this URL (replacing%swithtesting):https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=testing&sp=CAASAhABEDIT: and a fancier option is to use Redirector, Request Control (or similar) to create a redirection from YT searches without the CAASAhAB query param to the one with it.
In case it helps, there is the userscript Lemmy Image Expand, from this other post.
There is also a userscript: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/469297-block-lemmy-instances
You need to edit the array on line 17 after installing.
FYI: There are RSS feeds for user posts: https://lemmy.world/feeds/u/Speculater.xml?sort=New
AFAIK that would be ok, a lot of subreddits don’t even require the posts to be approved, so that would be the same as setting your sub to not require approving and posting to it with a different account.
Note that, unlike reddit, lemmy shows negative vote values. So it may seem a bit more dramatic compared to reddit.
