Linux users don't get matches in dating apps because they block all the trackers, which has the app refusing to do anything. I'm pretty sure Tinder wouldn't even launch correctly on my phone.

Jokes aside though, online dating is a terrifying thing in terms of online privacy, with how much data these services leech off of people, on top of everything the users already tell about themselves

C: 8-9 years with the same partner. So you're right

The problem with Linux users is that when they identify themselves online people look with confusion instead of love/hate that vegans get, making them less relevant in general

I use arch, BTW

So I'm a vegetarian (I know I know, I should be vegan), but don't tell anyone. Should I? Should I put that into my dating profile?

BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world · 14 pts · 3y

I went vegan 2 years ago, and my husband is not, and that's hard, especially for a pair of foodies that used to share everything and eat out a lot.

Is it cheaper to be vegan than being omnivorous?

usernamesAreTricky@lemmy.ml · 22 pts · 3y (16 replies)

It found that in high-income countries:

Vegan diets were the most affordable and reduced food costs by up to one third.

• Vegetarian diets were a close second.

• Flexitarian diets with low amounts of meat and dairy reduced costs by 14%.

• By contrast, pescatarian diets increased costs by up to 2%.

Compared to meat eaters, results show that “true” vegetarians do indeed report lower food expenditures

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0921800915301488?via%3Dihub ---(looking at the US)

Based on primary data (n = 1040) collected through an online survey, representative of the Portuguese population, through logistic regressions, it was possible to conclude that plant-based consumers, particularly vegan, are associated with lower food expenditures compared to omnivorous consumers. In fact, plant-based consumers are shown to spend less than all other consumers assessed

True, but did you ever have some proper Beaufort? Comté? Abondance? Reblochon? Morbier? Cantal?

Bread is not an animal product nor are most types of bread typically made with any animal products additives

TheWheelMustGoOn@feddit.de · 1 pts · 3y

No the big three are proteins, carbs and fat. Only proteins are animal based on omnivore diets. Therefore you just need to replace them.

Tbh meat in general is overpriced when eggs and dairy are perfect substitutes. I only ever eat meat when I'm traveling and need a quick option.

Vegetarians exist.

Sheeple@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 3y

Depends on your region. Meat is never affordable from the supermarket and in-city but in areas with an active local fishing industry for an example, fish can be one of the most cost efficient sources of nutrients if you purchase them directly. Saved my life when I was going through poverty.

One should note that vegetarians exist and those tend to be (generally) more affordable due to having a bigger variety in choice while also cutting out the expensive meats. Also generally more accessible than a vegan lifestyle, is not suiting every person's metabolism. I'm now a vegetarian purely because meat is unaffordable to me currently (I moved away so no more cheap fish)

Need to find myself a vegan to eat my meat 👈😉👈
Jokes aside, I do try to eat less meat and I think having a partner you can share that with makes that a lot easier.

So Vegetarians are smarter than Vegans? Got it
