Well, the website and mobile app are overwhelmingly hated (just look at the reviews on the PlayStore). I think there are two major things helping Reddit: It's easy to grasp (Lemmy has instances, dozens of different apps, etc.) and the fact that Reddit already has a community for basically everything.

The wasps you see are usually the ones only out for your food.
I don't. I chose to purchase the pro version for a few bucks.
I don't know any open source client that is even remotely as nice to use as Boost. Also, it's not like the developer is actively spying on you, that's just the default AdMob popup Google is now forced to show (They simply didn't ask for any kind of consent in the past).
Anyway, I simply paid a few bucks for ad-free Boost.
Honestly, I think Gmail's web client is pretty great. It actually has tons of power user features I found very handy in the past (like support for scripting).
This is one of my favorite pictures on the internet.
I have been using a multi-monitor setup for years and never had any issues. Windows will usually appear on the screen you closed them on.
I'm calling out your use of it just lays in their nature as some sort of objective truth, yes. Feel free to support the notion.
I never claimed it was an objective truth, I just believe it to be likely. Breeding is used to reinforce desired traits and I see no reason to believe that 'inherent aggressiveness' can't be bred.
I'm not sure how "bred for X" is particularly relevant to your assertion that "X will Y".
Again, likelihood. It's possible that humans were ineffective at achieving their goal of breeding an aggressive dog for fighting but reality gives me no reason to doubt it.
Don't you think you should?
There is neither concrete evidence for or against it. Again, I came to my conclusion by applying the same logic I apply to other bred traits.
Has it become a "systematic problem"? I'm curious as to how you've drawn that conclusion. Media sensationalism does not a problem make.
Judging by the statistics, it has. Pitbulls are responsible for 65.6% of reported attacks in the US, yet only make up 6% of all dogs. Whether that's the fault of the dog or poor training from the owner doesn't change the fact that it is a systematic problem.
I don't think there is a proper short term solution to this problem. At least dogs don't live forever. A gun bought now can still be used to shoot somebody in a hundred years, a pitbull, on the other hand, has an average life expectancy of 12-14 years.
No need to get personal. I don't know what anecdotes you are talking about. Are you disagreeing with my assertion that certain breeds of dogs naturally exhibit certain traits? If not, then wouldn't it be much more of an anomaly if a breed that was bred for fighting didn't also possess appropriate traits? I do not have any studies to back up my statements, so I have not completely ruled out the possibility that there is no genetic basis, just found it unlikely.
Moreover, the same is true, of course, for any other dog breed that becomes a systematic problem.
Ruby was designed to evoke joy and they absolutely succeeded. Usually, programming is mostly a means to an end to me. But using Ruby just feels so amazing, it's almost impossible to even describe to somebody who has never used it before.
