According to the linked RFC it’s due to the site’s user generated content. I guess that’s an understandable policy for Wikipedia.

Ok, that’s fair. I just use the english terms anyways and usually also change the interface language to english.

Apparently for some people (my mom) the search or filters work better on Temu. No idea why, I only ever use AliExpress.

There’s also the longer form Drachinifel version

And 2d, who self host on a server/VPS they rented somewhere.

New stuff gets called AI until it is useful, then we call it something else.

It will be the workers, with their courage, resolution and self-sacrifice, who will be chiefly responsible for achieving victory. The petty bourgeoisie will hesitate as long as possible and remain fearful, irresolute and inactive; but when victory is certain it will claim it for itself and will call upon the workers to behave in an orderly fashion, and it will exclude the proletariat from the fruits of victory. … the rule of the bourgeois democrats, from the very first, will carry within it the seeds of its own destruction, and its subsequent displacement by the proletariat will be made considerably easier…
