Another thing I don’t get is people posting questions and then never engaging with the comments. Not answering follow-up questions or up-/downvoting answers.

On Reddit those were often bots attempting to establish an account with fake posts and karma before using it for spam. Not sure about Lemmy.

Instance owners can and should prune those type of inactive communities. Other instances do that sort of cleanup, not sure about lemmy.world's own policy for that.

Agreed, though I've found that usually dousing a fly in water (via spray bottle) is enough to surprise them & get them to drop. Once they've fallen it takes them a bit to dry themselves & get airborne again, that's usually enough time to swat it and finish the job.

That works well if you just have one or a few flies - if you've got a ton of them fly paper is going to work much better.

Wonder if he was ever really "missing" to begin with. Maybe the family was able to claim life insurance money, or there was some other reason he needed to disappear. Then after 30 years there was no point keeping it up so he was mysteriously found with no explanation.

Yup agree with you there, Tabasco sauces are great. Not sure that I'd call their Sriracha an actual alternative vs the original Sriracha sauce but aside from that there's nothing wrong with their version.

I do like that they didn't add a ton of extra ingredients to their version, simple ingredient list = better IMO.

If any of my nearby supermarkets carried it I'd definitely give this one a go. Not sure that I want to commit to buying multiple bottles online.

Stan: "You are simply ~~bad~~ product", no respect there.

Soldier Boy would just think Homelander is being some sort of annoying boy scout if Homelander was genuinely trying to be ethical/good/whatever, there would be no respect there.

Butcher would maybe respect Homelander but he certainly won't like him, he just doesn't like Supes. Also I'd assume that all the other Supes are still doing their own thing so Butcher would still dislike them all generally speaking. e.g. A-Train would still end up killing Hughie's girlfriend, Deep would still be a POS, Supes would still be responsible for all sorts of collateral damage, etc.

Maybe not the Tabasco Sriracha if you're looking for that Sriracha flavor. It's not bad at all but it basically tastes like Sriracha flavored Tabasco sauce. That could be a good thing, there are a ton of Tabasco sauce devotees out there, just don't expect it to taste like a proper Sriracha sauce.

A lot of these alternative Sriracha brands seem to have a ton of extra ingredients vs the original which puts me off from buying them.

That's fair, I wasn't aware of what their specific arrangement was. Sort of suspected the K-9 dev was hired by Mozilla or they agreed to work together, that's usually how these things go.

Both, sort of? It always had a free version along with a paid version that I think existed mostly for donations than anything else.

That was before Mozilla took it over, now I don't think the paid version of the app even exists. I don't know if Mozilla will eventually rebrand it as Thunderbird Android version or something but I'm not worried about it as long as it still works.

Been using K-9 Mail for a long time, works fine for me. I usually install it through Google Play but it does seem to be on F-Droid too.
