Hello world
Last I heard they want to switch to another platform, and don’t consider it worth upgrading to 0.19 because they’re leaving soon so it wouldn’t be worth the hassle.
This is pure guesswork on my part, but they could be waiting for Sublinks (a Lemmy-compatible backend) to get up to speed before switching to that. They say that the new platform is “compatible with all Lemmy apps”, and Sublinks is the only project I know of that fits that criteria.
The community is a copy of the subreddit r/whitepeopletwitter, which is a spin-off of r/blackpeopletwitter. It’s not meant for exclusively white-person tweets - rather, it’s just meant to be a funny name to those who are aware of r/blackpeopletwitter. The omission of “white” in the display name is probably to reflect that they accept tweets from people of any ethnicity.

It says “hot surface do not touch” in full, actually. Braille uses single characters to represent some common letter combinations (“touch” is “t” + “ou” + “ch”). The words “do” and “not” are each contracted to a single letter (“d” and “n” respectively).

Fortunately this is fake, it was made by Alan Wagner on Instagram who goes around sticking up posters like this. If it was real that last sentence would be seriously concerning, obviously.
“Karma police, arrest this girl”
Definitely misogynistic
An alarm clock with a warm-colored light on it, that slowly turns on over a period of time leading up to your alarm. Some smart lightbulbs can also be set to do the same thing, which is what I use.

My school had several holes in the middle of the building to avoid this. Most of them just have gravel at the bottom
I live in the Uk, and both my primary and secondary schools had buildings exactly like these.
