Interesting. I have a genuine question I hope you don't mind me asking. How come you prefer Russian over Ukrainian?

[–] rockerface@lemm.ee 8 points 18 hours ago

Right now I've switched to Ukrainian in almost all cases, so, right now, I don't. But, to answer your question about my past preference, it was mostly peer pressure. Most of my friends and large part of my relatives were speaking either russian or surzhyk (a sort of Ukrainian-russian creole, that varies depending on the region).
