Yes. No, it's not a shot at him, the Quebec dish is unknown in France. Since his name is in Cyrillic, it provides the option to spell his name in such a way that sounds closest to what it should be. Also, "Putin" is a letter short of "putain", a common swear word, closely meaning "fuck".

Bluesky is shrinking rather than growing. It has no source of revenue. If it doesnβt grow, *it will die*. Constantly making it unwelcoming, saying who you donβt want here, setting rules for what other sites people should and shouldnβt use, and the like, will kill it quicker.
