Ukraine
Rules:
-
No sympathy with the enemy or its collaborators. Russian and North Korean soldiers are fascists committing a genocide. Remember that.
-
Objective and factual reporting from the battlefield, parliaments, etc. is encouraged, even if it's about bad news for Ukraine.
-
Insulting Putin and his cronies (Orban, Trump, Musk,...) is absolutely fine but don't use homophobic or similar language against them. Members of the queer community don't deserve to be compared to that scum. Also: Putin disciminates against gay people. If you do as well, you're part of the problem.
-
Don't insult or use overly harsh language against other commentators.
-
Don't submit direct links to Twitter/X and Truth Social posts. You may: Post a screenshot + quote, do a full quote and name the author, direct link to a proxy service like xcancel.com, deep link an image embedded in a tweet because Lemmy will cache a copy.

900 is way too low. I haven't seen a number below a thousand for a long time. From the numbers i remember seeing I'd estimate the average is somewhere around 1250
I just calculated average/day from Feb 24, 2022 to now and got ~900
If your average of ~1250/day holds we reach 2M around October 2027, so if we split the difference it could end up being a milestone reached in time for Christmas 2027.
The numbers have gone way up since the start of the war as Ukraine got better armed
Funny I used exactly 1250 for my calculation before reading your post. ๐
I agree that 1250 is a sensible moderate number to use now.
And by that calculation it is 5 months earlier around October next year.
