since when did the statement that stalin was bad, actually, and you shouldn't stan him, become somehow controversial on this platform

like i don't know, usians.

i don't know how to explain to you that stalin criminalized gay relationships and gay sex in ussr and also killed an entire generation of kazakh and central asian artists, philosophers and decolonial activists who were active at the time

i don't know how to tell you he is one of the reasons why a lot of people in kazakhstan including myself aren't fluent in kazakh

i really don't know

man, listen. I just watched a cop shoplift from 7/11. I can do whatever the fuck I want

@mossfet it is a hard problem for sure. I think as things are, much would need to be heavily redone. Ideally, there would be no use of the words "left" or "right" in text UIs (games and abstract apps would still need these). Might need to be replaces with "inwards" and "outwards" relative to the appropriate UI element, since that wouldn't make an assumption about LTR or RTL text.

@mossfet I think Android itself flips a lot of these elements automatically, but the trouble is that flipping these elements is never logically linked to how they were opened to begin with, so the inputs for the UI aren't localized along with the UI.

@mossfet because the same direction swipe will often cause a UI element aligned by the text reading direction to show up on the opposite side of the screen. It is hard to describe without an example so here I will add some screenshots showing what I mean. These are from the Wikipedia app, and both of these table of contents pop-outs appear when I swipe from right to left, which only makes sense for LTR languages like English.

It is very confusing when using my phone with a right to left language enabled and none of the apps switch the directions of the swipes and gestures accordingly. Swiping right to left will consistently bring up a menu on the opposite side than what I'd expect and vice-versa.

If I made a horror movie it would just be me opening canned foods from England
