  • Schadenfreudler /ˈʃɑː.dɘnˌfrɔ͜ɪd̥.lɘr/

    If you don’t know how to read IPA, roughly “SHAAH-then-FROYD-ler”

    Btw: I just constructed this word based on my native speaker intuition. I doubt that you can find it in a dictionary, because it’s not something one would force into a single word. A more natural way to say what you mean would be “Leute, die (hier) (auch) Schadenfreude empfinden”, which translates to “people who (also) feel Schadenfreude (here)”.






  • What exactly was digg and what happened to it anyway? I used phpBB forums and IRC as a teen, then didn’t interact with social media in general for some years, then eventually found my way to Reddit (with a low-key stint on Facebook to stay in contact with relatives across the globe in-between). The only interaction I had with digg was seeing Firefox extensions for it during what I assume was its hayday.
