I vaguely remember from trying this many years ago that if you install Windows first it will try and wipe everything, and if you install Linux second it will leave Windows alone, and you can then go straight to grub on every boot and choose Windows or Linux. Is that still the case?

Great answers, cheers!

I read it as "waff-run"

Same, I'm wondering what this brings that you can't already do

I'm using Summit, it can toggle off links, texts, pictures, and video posts

Would that work to obfuscate up/downvotes in general?

Some clients let you do that

How do you store who has voted and what the results of the poll are without storing results on a server? Ultimately it's just the same sort of data as who upvoted and downvoted what, right?

This seems like the kind of thing that would be ideal to be built into Lemmy (or whatever other fediverse product) and set at an instance level. Pick an instance which sets a policy you agree with, have it automatically applied to every post and comment made on that instance, and critically have it not displayed as comment text on every single post you see when browsing.

The main gripe that people seem to have with having it in a comment's text is that it's just noise to most readers, this seems like it could solve that issue.

Ooh that's a cool one, cheers!
