    True that’s why I don’t have any “traditional” social media, except for YouTube I guess?

    I mostly use lemmy/YouTube and from time to time I really can only find some niche community on reddit so I have to give in.

    But no political content whatsoever, that’s why lemmy shocked me a bit.

    Yeah, I’m kinda mad at all the Spez/3rd party app stuff, but the constant hate has got me thinking about leaving lemmy. It’s sad because I like the idea behind lemmy but people have no respect.

    I like hearing different sides of things but absolutely everything is political here and it’s either black or white. Ffs

    I see some Linux but I’m subscribed to a lot of techy communities. Self host, programming etc. So it’s kinda normal.

    Could be the default view on each instance… On my first account I subbed to a lot of different communities on different instances so I saw all the crap. Eventually due to all the politics bullshit I just migrated to my current instance which has hexbear and lemmygrad blocked so it’s been a lot better.

    But even so, I always see a bunch of politics crap on the memes community.










  • Scientifically it’s hard to pinpoint exactly what makes EP or BP or others. Although maybe it could be done?

    However, it’s easy to tell BP a part from others. If you mainly use “você” it’s BP. If you don’t use it, then you’d have to check other things I guess. Since, for instance, Portuguese from most African/Asian countries use “tu”.

    Em relação ao vídeo, facilmente classificaria o vídeo como PT-BR. Apesar de não entender tudo, não só pelas expressões mas pela rapidez como é falado, consigo claramente perceber algumas expressões que dão características de Português do Brasil. Exemplos, a expressão “Aí eu falei”. O uso de “o cara”, “poxa” e outros. Não saberia dizer de que região do Brasil seria o sotaque/expressões, mas conseguia facilmente dizer que era do Brasil.

    Edit: afinal até percebo melhor do que pensava. Tinha a velocidade do YouTube a 1.25x Voltando para 1x, ficou mais fácil de perceber.


  • That was a lot to take in indeed. I can’t speak for other dialects, but I can understand Azorean accent absolutely fine, same with Madeira. There are some idiomatic expressions here and there that I would maybe not understand but I would still clearly call it European Portuguese.

    The same goes for Alentejo. They do use -ndo ending sometimes but I would still clearly call it mostly European Portuguese.

    I don’t think this subject needs to be as complicated as you make it. Yes, if we deep dive we can look at things that way but I don’t really think that kind of discussion applies here, nor am I knowledgeable enough to engage with you on that hahah

    I do love how passionate you are about it though!


  • You’re not wrong but the way I see it it’s a hierarchical term.

    Portuguese - all Portuguese based languages Brazilian Portuguese - all Portuguese dialects in Brazil European Portuguese - all Portuguese dialects in Portugal Angolan Portuguese - all Portuguese dialects in Angola and so on…

    I’m not expecting everyone to know every expression under the sun, but those are CLEARLY Brazilian-Portuguese based so I thought it best to clear it up because people just say Portuguese most times and I feel that creates some confusion.
