I have a similar thing and something I realized about 2 years ago: everyone’s just people. Genders have different tendencies for generalized thinking patterns and behavior patterns but men are just women with different genitals and vice versa, as goes for all other genders.

The differences that exist are quite something to get used to, but there aren’t a lot of them, and the only way to treat your crush is like a best friend that is very open and maybe also has sex with you.

As a guy, getting used to talking about feelings and being open is still hard, but I’m getting better at it. I’m just not as attractive so I have yet to notice someone being physically attracted to me, and only handful have been interested in me at all. Nevertheless, I’m learning and losing inhibitions, and that’s the most important thing.

Yes I find this very intriguing.

Filing my taxes.

I would assume if the instance shuts down this means at the next point of sync the instance will disappear from your radar, pulling all posts and accounts and communities from that instance.

Iirc the likes from your account on that instance’s posts might be either completely removed (because the post doesn’t exist anymore) or they are in limbo but invisible and inaccessible, although I have no clue how that would work.

Yeah I can see the API call shenanigans. I’m using super maven for code and it’s pretty good tbh, it gets me 30% of the way or something. But API calls is a no-go, it almost never gets it right because I’m pretty sure it’s very hard for AI to learn the differences in API endpoints.
