  • Well one or two other people doesn’t sound too promising, so I get the concern. If you do get curious, I would consider making a post on one of the main kbin magazines probing if people are interested in helping crowd-fund an apple dev account for you. $100 isn’t all that steep when a group is involved. A lot of the fediverse apps have optional in-app purchases as well that are just for tips and donations, so if you get something on the App Store, particularly if it’s the ONLY kbin app there, it might be a little easier to get it to keep itself afloat.

    I don’t know anything about programming, economics, or app development though, so feel free to completely ignore me. Also, don’t do anything to make your life any more stressful than it needs to be. If you do decide to crowd-fund, however, I will be happy to toss a few bucks in for you.








  • You are correct. The only truly incorrectly defined word in the list is the “pop psychology” form of “trauma”, which looks like it was just made up for the sake of the meme. “Gaslighting” is correct on both sides, but the two in the middle are actually being paired with different forms of the same word, so the definition is inherently different. Also, the definitions on the left are coming from a learner’s dictionary so they come across as stupid next to advanced definitions.


    1. Take a learners dictionary and pair it with an advanced one.
    2. Pic some controversial words.
    3. Compare verbs against nouns, nouns against adjectives so the definitions aren’t actually the same but look like they should be.
    4. Completely make up the last “simple” definition so it seems like you are making some profound point that’s actually just a dumb comment.
    5. Call the side with the stupid comment you made up “pop psychology” so people can hate on others for no reason while demonstrating in plain sight what gaslighting actually looks like.

    Either that or just be too dumb to know how your own language works.








  • Thank you for making such a thoughtful response! Out of curiosity, does this mean KDE actually runs on other distros of Linux as well? Until now, I had been under the impression that KDE was just arch Linux itself. Would you happen to know a good way for me to learn more about Linux, and how to put it to good use from a beginner’s perspective?
