  • I believe this is the right answer. Additionally, one character in CJK languages represents a single syllable, so you get less line breaks per word. For example the world “union” can be transliterated to Korean as 유니온. Writing that vertically takes 5 lines in English (one line per letter), but only 3 lines in Korean:

    유 니 온














  • Lemmy puts up full-page advertisements for donations but a lot of that funding goes to running Lemmy.ml and seemingly only very little to actual code development.

    Please stop spreading misinformation. The server for lemmy.ml only costs ~70€ per month which is only 2% of the total donation amount (3336€). With Lemmy we care a lot about writing high-quality and bug-free code as well as offering a good user experience. All of that takes time to do well.

    Edit: For your information, only donations via Opencollective pay for lemmy.ml hosting. All other donation methods are exclusively paying for developer salaries.
