If I’m asking then I want to know. That’s okay, isn’t it?
Also this is a general Ask Lemmy (as in all of lemmy, not just the AQKPTRW community) and so there’s a reasonable assumption that this has interest or implications for the general readership.
It’s usually a pretty courteous place and I’m sorry if I didn’t come across that way myself.
But 99pc of posts here are about something I’ve never heard of - Linux and program languages, tonnes of jargon and acronyms. I don’t jump in and ask what something is and follow up with ‘why is this (thing that has no impact on me, as I’ve just discovered by googling the thing) newsworthy?’
I mean obviously it’s newsworthy to me. I thought given how small the place is, that maybe one or two people might respond - people who knew - and everyone else would shrug and scroll past.
