I moved here two years ago. My tactic for initial pronunciation lessons has been to ride the SkyTrain and adopt the pronunciations used for station announcements.

Based on that, it’s “LOW-heed”

I will add that many of us who work remotely using publicly accessible wifi also use VPNs, and Imgur actively blocks IPs from multiple commercial VPN providers. If you want those users to see the image you’re sharing, Imgur is not the way to go.

Pixelfed works well with other Fediverse services like Kbin and Lemmy. Try hosting there!

In the short term, people will come by to lollygag. In the long term, there’s only so much John Oliver anyone wants to see in a day, so traffic to those subs will likely fall.

Yeah, I was just thinking I have a browser extension that accomplishes this for Mastodon as well. I wonder if something similar could be thrown together quickly and easily for kbin.
