    Just because you’re not smart enough to get that other guy’s points doesn’t make him wrong, fwiw

      I’m fully aware of this. I’m trying to figure out what the point they’re attempting to make is in the first place. It’d be difficult for me to concede if the point is incomprehensible to me.

          This post has pretty much nothing to do with technology.

          That’s very clearly not the point being made by the message:

          Yet you are, however, following a direct mirror of reddit right here in this community. Fully automated for your convenience.

          This is the message I’m not understanding the point of.

          I suppose I do also have a “legitimate mental handicap” in that I suffer ADHD, but that’s not relevant to the subject at hand from what I can tell.

            You claimed not to use reddit but are using a reddit mirroring service. Whether or not you have been on reddit in years has nothing to do with the validity of his earlier point concerning the importance of keeping boards tied to the topic of intended discussion. Which of course were tied to reddit because reddit was the predecessor of this site…

            Is it really that hard to read?

              You claimed not to use reddit but are using a reddit mirroring service.

              I’m using links that also appear on reddit reposted by a bot to a different service that is not reddit.

              They’re the one who focused in on that. I was simply saying that I can’t relate to their experience with Reddit before Lemmy.

              And?

              Is it really that hard to read?

              I suppose it must be. Would you like to insult me more?

                  Why don’t you just call me the R word or some other slur directly at this point? lmao
                  This is clearly unproductive. You also fail to acknowledge or respond to anything else I’ve said. I guess I’m just too stupid to understand.

                    Ok, let me go in depth, as that too stupid to understand conclusion is actually the one I came to.

                    Reddit mirroring, which was poor word choice on my part, refers to the fact that Lemmy is just a federated version of reddit. The UX is entirely the same. Whether or not you are a reddit user has nothing to do with this.

                    The community basis of Lemmy, the site we’re currently on, comes from reddit as the other user was talking about. So does the importance of keeping the discussion boards to their topics.

                    Your relation to reddit is completely irrelevant in this discussion.

                    Was that simple enough for you? Or do you need pictures?
