In my view, it is like this. Four areas I am going to talk about. China mainland; Hong Kong and Taiwan and Macau.
In china mainland, different towns there have diverse dialects. When they went to junior high school. They start to learn mandarin together. After that mandarin is the common language to communicate. In the city, they start mandarin at primary school or when they were born. They learn mandarin from their parents
In Hong Kong. Cantonese and traditional Chinese writing same as Macau. But Macau may also speak
Portuguese I am not very sure.
In Taiwan. Traditional Chinese writing and Taiwanese. (very close to mandarin sounds but have a different way to say some words. I like it .sounds better than original mandarin)
To answer your question. Yes, there are many languages.

>> I actually do also but not as much as Firefox.
>> I would love to find out other ones.
Waterfox is the next step up in evolution. A Firefox variant, but better.
Get the "Current" version and it is the Aurora version of Firefox, stripped of some of Mozilla's tracking and other things.
Supports all FF extensions. There is another version, but Current is amazingly fast and stable.

🇬🇧 Good morning to all our Spanish speaking friends in the Fediverse.
I wanted to share a mention of a nice small instance, which runs the excellent and more full featured version of Mastodon called "Glitch-Social" -- and which I personally recommend to anyone interested in a better environment.
Niklas is the Admin of some mastodon instances running Glitch-Social, and on a post here yesterday he mentioned one, which is a Spanish speaking focused one.
https://mstdn.es/about is the location. You are welcome to visit and register, make yourself a new home there, perhaps you like it? I have created a personal Publishing account for my Blog at another of Niklas's instances and am very happy.
A small server is open to grow, and your contribution helps that happen.
Would like to know more about Glitch-Social? See the introduction page here : https://glitch-soc.github.io/docs/

Want to start a new online programming course? There are lots of free ones out there - you just have to know where to look.
So in this article @dhawalhshah
shares 680+ free online programming & computer science courses you can start in June.

Sometimes I feel like banging my head against a wall. Trying to suggest alternatives to spyware and proprietary systems, people don't get it .

I appreciate these are different ways, but they are all commercial, closed source and zoom just routes via china and is not even offering basic encryption for free users.
The living coasts attraction in Torquay has had to close due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Anyone know of other zoos or perhaps marine research facilities could look in to taking over the site.

If anyone can help, maybe contact the Torbay Development Agency regarding this

There HAS to be some research people out there, who could benefit from having a base in South Devon with Easy Access to Plymouth and Exeter universities, and 4 hours (ish) to London by train.

As I have shared the repository publicly so we all have access,
Would people be able to follow me on GitLab so I can add people to the repository then hopefully make it Private, not sure how ot make it private at this point, but It must do-able.
It means you then HAVE to sign up here, be active before gaining access to it.
Hopefully this is readable here, if not I will see if I can upload the pdf to the forum.

This is what we are up against, basic skills courses only seem to promote proprietary systems

I did tweet them back and commented there is no mention of free software solutions in their list.
Hopefully some of the people on the free software foundation libreplanet list will do the same, keep the pressure up on them.
Published my blog post on the e-learning forum, so hopefully I can attract more people here.
