Il server è indipendente dalla lingua che utilizzino i suoi utenti. In più, io utilizzo diverse lingue e non penso che una tra loro potrebbe determinare la mia identità. Se un server in Italia avrebbe da proporre qualcosa autentico come lo fanno diversi server in Germania, per esempio, facilmente troverebbe una sua comunità, che sicuramente non sarebbe isolata secondo la sua lingua. Quelli tedeschi non sono solamente in tedesco, anche se l'influenza è imponente.
PS: Chiaramente sai poco della comunità bulgara, ma questo importa poco.
@litteracarolina or maybe the same thing put differently: you need a strong user base so it could have the motivation to find the way forward
@fedifaschifo @Star_VoidY @fediverso perdonami la prossima domanda: a che servono le istanze italiane e perché dovremmo occuparsene di loro? Scusa, io non sono italiano. Mi pongo le stesse domande per le istanze bulgare e non riesco a trovare nessuna giustificazione valida. Dopo la comunità bulgara (nel mondo fisico) è circa 10 volte più piccola di quella italiana e per diverse ragioni e molto meno interessante
@litteracarolina even very successful software projects die out after their creators stop maintaining them. Your goal would be to build a lively community around the tools, so it can bring back up an abandoned project. Funding is crucial in such transitory moments, but there's no recipe for how long. Then anything else like good documentation, test coverage, etc. are very helpful, but secondary.
@bundyo @Peio @dni те децата бързо се ориентират в тези глупости (за майтап точно това изследвахме с колеги: https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.01540 ). Да му мислим ние чичковците, които от bitcoin скочихме директно на chatgpt без даже да се ослушаме отвъд рекламната кампания на създателите. Пак виждам хора около мен, които успяват, ама без да се разбира в какво.
@mastodon la traduzione automatica non vi fa favore
@fedifaschifo @Star_VoidY @fediverso quando dici "italiani" intendi in lingua italiana, su hosting italiano, oppure una comunità (quasi) esclusivamente italiana di nazionalità. Io tendo a confondermi tra queste.

Protecting forests is crucial to keep climate change and biodiversity loss in check, and to ensure thriving rural areas and bioeconomy. 🙌
Many forests in the EU are not in a good state overall.
They are suffering from:
🌲biodiversity loss;
🌲pests;
🌲pollution and disease.
We highlight the need for #EUCivilSociety to be closely involved in the further development and monitoring of the EU forest strategy for 2030.

Be like Mister Rogers. It's good for your health.
Studies suggest that cultivating better relationships with the people who live nearby is crucial for your happiness.

@MiriShuli @peterbrown @JoshuaHolland only sinister politicians and short-sighted military service people could sustain that a popularly-supported terrorist organisation could be destroyed without removing the valid causes for its existence.
Settlers in the West Bank are committing crimes for decades with the illegal support of the state, the occupation of Gaza is illegal.
Historical evidence is clear for those who don't close their eyes, be it Northern Ireland, Sri Lanka or South Africa.
@markgrieveson @LALegault the phrase is a bit complicated, but I watched a couple of their videos o ex-twitter (I have no access to tiktok or insta). They are focused on #AIPAC, but it's actually a pretty simple message of opposing politicians that get money (from AIPAC and the likes) to then try to stop people from deciding how to spend their own money (particularly the boycott part of the BDS movement). I though putting it more generically shows the absurdity of the discourse

NEW RESEARCH: Emissions from the motor sector could have fallen by more than 30% between 2010 and 2022 if vehicles had stayed the same size.
SUVs now represent the largest share of the new car market (51%).

@ianwelsh If you want to get a bird's eye view of Bulgaria, consider this chart:

@marcreid once again, Bulgaria for the win... in reverse order. Here's a historical reference for context: https://www.economist.com/christmas-specials/2010/12/16/the-rich-the-poor-and-bulgaria

@ianwelsh It's on a crossroad to Europe. Too many foreign influences clash here - Russia, Turkey, US to mention a few.
