    I'm from Portugal. I'm not aware of any difference regarding that word in particular, but tbh I wouldn't know. I'm always surprised with some of the differences I find from time to…

    zyper.com which was adquired by Discord, tried the same approach, but I think there was always the issue of the advertising platform. The biggest public forums now-a-days are org-o…
