Honestly any, even if I may never get a chance to visit, I like learning about some of them, particularly ride designs and engineering. (Also for those lurking, this question is mainly inspired by having watched some more Defunctland videos lately.)

I open it in my browser and leave the tab open forever (because I will never come back to it).

I do this too, to a degree, but have you tried bookmarking in your browser more? I have and it's been pretty nice for maintaining this habit without having a tab perpetually open (I write as I have like 10+ tabs perpetually open that I swear I'll get back to eventually).

Have you been by !atheistmemes@lemmy.world? I think they might enjoy this even more there.

What would one recommend as more of a custom build version of these with a way to connect a convenient remote (smartphone or otherwise)? Alternatively is there a way to sort of jailbreak many of them, or does that just become more cumbersome?

Have you checked out the following few communities?

!communitypromo@lemmy.ca for new communities to promote themselves as they try to get off the ground.

!newcommunities@lemmy.world for more or less the same, just via Lemmy World.

Also an underrated community that I like to use occasionally:

!lemmy411@lemmy.ca to ask about whether specific communities exist/are around that you may not be having much luck finding (say, due to unique naming or nobody on your instance has joined it so it doesn't appear in search).

Lastly there's my own little community I threw together awhile ago that I'm not sure how to grow where you can ask around for stuff similar to other stuff you're into:

!likethismaylike@lemm.ee

I've not tried Florisboard yet, but OpenBoard doesn't have it (neither in the main build nor forks from what I can tell) and nor is it available in AnySoftKeyboard's default install, but it's highly customizable so it may be an option there.

That said, isn't spellcheck underlining more frequently in the apps you're typing into rather than the virtual keyboard? Tbh I hadn't ever noticed it in Gboard before, but I haven't used it in a little while (though in looking into its settings I see it now, I guess I thought it'd been the other apps instead the whole time).

Tbh that's probably correct, and the differences may be from me avoiding autocorrect as much as possible because of obnoxious stuff like it persistently trying to correct fav words like fuck

Fwiw that's what I primarily do, but it's felt a little slower and still error-prone, whereas I'd think/hope direct tap-typing might mitigate both.

[–] ALostInquirer@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

From what I've seen of some folks, it at least seems like it, but maybe I'm mistaken and it's more experience with tap-typing.

Is it Chrome that shows a smiley? I could have swore it showed the infinity symbol after a certain number, but I may be confusing it with Firefox. 😂

do you have horticultural tips for growing big bananas?

[–] ALostInquirer@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

is it the biggest success if it's a luxury RV?
