There is definitely an undercurrent of anger/disappointment towards the USA and Americans, but it's nowhere near the point of being hostile towards American visitors. No one is going to be chasing you out with pitchforks. Parts of the Island (and Victoria in particular) have big tourism industries and would be more than happy to have you spend your money and support local Canadian businesses.

The other comments have touched on it, but I think a couple of things to be aware of are 1) be polite/respectful, and 2) leave politics at the door. From your post, you're obviously not a Trump supporter, but I think it applies to both sides. Obviously we don't want to hear people talking about 51st state bullshit or wearing MAGA hats, but I think Canadians are equally tired of the "sorry about Trump" sentiment as well.

Hope you have a good trip! Sproat Lake is an amazing spot. You just missed them moving the Martin Mars bombers!

It doesn't show in the app drawer, but I found it via the all apps in Settings.

Go to the Settings App > Apps > "See all XX apps". It's called Android System SafetyCore, so it should be close to the top of the list. Tap on it and select Uninstall.

I'm curious about this. I've got a Pixel 6 and noticed that the battery started going to shit about a month or so ago? I couldn't find an install date for SafetyCore, but it was listed in my apps. I've uninstalled it now. It'll be interesting to see if that was causing it.

I'd prefer something higher resolution, but it's got a bunch of upvotes. If the people seem to like it, I'm not going to remove it.

Numb. Sad. Mostly numb.

I was cheering for Kamala. I wanted the US to succeed. She had the big rallies, the celebrity endorsements, the polls were saying it was neck-and-neck. It looked like sanity was going to prevail. Then Trump just basically sweeps it and it's like...oh. It's easy to call the Americans "stupid" or whatever insults I've seen flying around the internet, but there was a vote. He won the vote. Over 72 million people think that Trump and the Republican ideology lines up best with their ideology. Who am I to argue with that? I don't agree with it, but I guess that's democracy in action. Regardless of what lies were told or what disinformation was spread, people overwhelmingly went out, voted for ol' Donny, and this is the result. That's how she goes I guess...? I don't fucking know anymore dude.

My heart absolutely breaks for the people of Ukraine. I'm sure they'll lose their US support come January. They don't deserve that.

You're more than welcome to post on shitty food porn. There's not a lot of activity and the votes will let you know if it's the right place (I don't remove posts unless they're breaking rules). It kind of has two interpretations - pictures of shitty food (self explanatory) or food porn that's shitty (ie bad lighting, bad presentation, etc).

Or let me know if you start an "average food porn" community and I'm more than happy to link it in the sidebar of SFP.

Thanks! I'll try converting the file format and see if that'll work. I successfully uploaded a JPEG last night, so maybe it just doesn't like PNG files anymore 🤷‍♂️

There seems to be an issue with uploading large images. I don't know if anyone else has noticed it but I'm getting the error when trying to upload wallpapers to /c/wallpapers. I think it might be related to file size? Or maybe file format? It's a 13MB .png file. I don't remember running into issues with the old version when posting similar content.

I've seen that option but unfortunately not every NSFW post is NSFW because of nudity. Like some of the post in the Ukraine community are marked NSFW for war reasons.
