Hi all! I'm trying to gain an understanding of how people search and find websites nowadays, with a short foray into domain extensions. Here's the [survey](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdBZFiuhLsJt8pO2oL835VBqdLYN-qVJa1vv7OBN5uFN5q5JQ/viewform?usp=sf_link). It's only 7 short questions, shouldn't take more than 5 minutes. Thank you!

@LukeSky Well, what kind of things does she like to stitch? Funny text? Flowers? Animals?

- Shame the guy for being a bad trainer (in more eloquent words)? Or maybe that can be part of option 2.
Hi all, I'm trying to add quick links in a Google Doc to another Google Doc on the same account. Notion does this easily by typing @DocNameHere, and it magically works. Is there a function like this? I'm getting tired of going to the Doc I want to link, hitting Share, copying the link, back to the Doc I was working in, paste. There has to be an easier way. Thanks!

I tried Dune a few times, I just can't do it. Not the books, not the miniseries, not the new movie. In theory it sounds great, but... It's not gripping me at all for some reason.

@kindenough I'm currently using the Duckduckgo browser for 95% of my online stuff. Sadly it doesn't work with a lot of payment sites, so it's back to Chrome for that (I know Firefox has more privacy, I just never really got into it).
I also found Startpage recently, but they went the way of Qwant as well https://restoreprivacy.com/startpage-system1-privacy-one-group
Have a good weekend too!

@kindenough Thanks, I had no idea! I will pass this on to the person that made me aware of it!
Designed and based in France, Qwant is the first search engine that protects its users' freedoms. Our key words: privacy and neutrality.
There loads of recipes online on how to get dinner on the table in 30 seconds or less, but what are your slow and complicated favourites? Sauce that needs to simmer for two days? Low and slow braises? Pizza sourdough that rests for 5 days? What have we got here? 😬

I mean, yes I love Nolan's practical effects, but... Was this this random pollution really necessary?
I'm trying to move from Chrome to Duckduckgo browser, but I'm missing some extensions, among which is Tampermonkey. Does anyone have an idea how to get it to work? Thanks!

Could somebody maybe ELI5 this? I don't get it, I haven't used cash in over a decade, what's the difference with the digital euro and... Normal non-cash transactions? Alternatively, how will this screw us over and make things more expensive? Thanks!

It must be terrifying living there (in the US) right now, which probably makes it scarier if you're that close to it as well.

You make a good point, abuse of women is normalised. I think in this particular case (book vs show), the show was a lot more visceral, whereas in my opinion it was kinda of 'glossed over' in the book. It might be part of the writing style - I usually read books in first person, so it's like you are the character. This story was written so detached, I didn't feel much for anyone.

There's a kbin userstyle for PC (do they exist for mobile?) that gives you a sidebar of your subscribed magazines that groups them from different instances! You still have to find them first though.
A comprehensive mapping of old subreddits to new communities.
I read the Handmaid's Tale yesterday, finally. I'm disappointed. I did not like the writing style at all, there was no real story, just descriptions. And then it just ended. No conclusion or anything. My best guess it's because the TV show was so intense and well made (at least the earlier seasons), and the book was... Not? Episodes would stay with me for days, but I'm struggling to recall the book already. Maybe the book is supposed to be unsatisfying to go with the theme. Nothing much happened after Gilead was created, every day just kinda goes by. Sure there was some torture and death, but... Eh. Maybe I was expecting too much after all the praise it got. It's my first Atwood book, and way way outside of my usual genre (fantasy, scifi, horror). What did you all think of it?

Neat! Thank you! Sounds like you recommend owning it?
I wrote a quick manual for some friends trying to leave reddit and get their saved stuff, maybe it'll help someone else as well. Feel free to point out any mistakes, I'm by no means an expert.

Boobytraps. Rumours about a curse/ghosts/entry fee. Pretend there's something boring in there. Allow entry, but make the process the full force of German bureaucracy (you need to file form A on a blood moon, to get form A, you need document B2, no not that one the green one, you can get it from Location C but that's only open once a month for half an hour, and if you don't wear pink they won't help you).

Maybe if we make it, they will come? (and someone will want to take over modding?)

Have more than one interest/hobby! I can't imagine doing the same for months on end with no alternative. I naturally gravitate to a monthly rotation (not consciously, just kinda happens) of high interest in something, and then there's a few things I do whenever (read a book when I have a few minutes here or there, do some cross stitching while watching my husband play a game, etc).
Earlier this month, Meta showed staff plans for a text-based social network designed to compete with Twitter.
A script to help you make a list and export all subreddits you joined. Made by Tim Visée, not me, I just found it while looking for an easy way to get that list.
