Ukraine MT #1
Wer hatte "Russland marschiert in Panama ein nuked Panama, weil ein Schiff unter der Flagge Panamas die Ukraine angesteuert hat" auf seiner Bingo-Karte?
Grundsätzlich gab es doch schon länger die Diskussion, dass der Angriff neutraler Schiffe mit Ziel Ukraine gemäß Prisenrecht ein möglicher Schritt wäre.
Weil mich die Sortierung von Lemmy jedes mal aufs neue knackt, die altes Zeug nach oben spült :(
Ukraine MT #1
Die lauert auf Tauchstation. Ganz gefährlich.
Danke, hatte schon Sorge, mein Blutdruck wäre zu niedrig. Jetzt bin ich direkt wieder auf 180. Und ich hatte noch nicht mal meinen Kaffee!
Das Posting ist aber über ein Jahr alt.
Thank you, I added it to the resources. Didn't know that one before! That's a very detailed and extensive introduction.
Of course there needs to be a Kurrent community here on Lemmy, although it's still very small currently. The topic is quite niche, but I hope that it may gain some attention through genealogy or maybe findings in the estates of relatives. Or maybe just people interested in calligraphy and handwriting.
However, feel free to spread the word and thanks again for your contribution! It's much appreciated.
Comment synchronization (?) issues
During the last few days I stumbled accross mulitple links to Lemmy subs or specific threads from other Lemmy instances where I was able to read comments although I wasn't logged in, since I don't have an account there. But when I try to lookup the same subs/instances via our beloved instance Geddit, it says that there are no comments, although I'm able to see the initial posting.
Did anyone here experience something similar?

Although the writing is pretty neat, I'm having some difficulties with the last word. Any ideas? Might be a first name, maybe something like "Dora"?
Grundsätzlich hätte ich ja gesagt, jetzt, wo der Donnersdachs hier ist, wird's hier heimelig. Aber Slendersnoo macht mir Angst.
Lauf, Donnersdachs, lauf!
Lemmy App clients
Not sure of this is the right place, but here we go: Which client apps for Lemmy do you use on your, preferrably Android, smartphones? I'm currently having a look at Jerboa, which seems to be quite mature.
Learning resources: Getting started
The first steps are the most difficult ones. As with every writing, you might want to learn the alphabet at first. But even if you know all the letters, you might find it difficult to identify them in a given scripture. Especially with Kurrent it's necessary to practice to read texts to get used to different styles of handwritings and the various peculiarities dependent on the specific writer or the time of writing.
At the beginning it might be difficult to read a text without knowing about its content (or context), but there are lots of resources online. Both already transcribed texts and, nowadays, even interactive exercises.
To get started you might want to have a look at the following resources. Please note that this list is neither ordered nor comprehensive.
