the most important this to have when pirating is common sense
We disagree actually, it’s to have well written tutorials and not to rely on the idea that people can just know things from nothing.
We get the frustration in this meme but honestly, we never liked this kind of attitude in tech spaces, it’s exclusionary, gatekeepy and harms people. We understand not wanting to answer every single question but some well written tutorials etc to link to are better than having everyone starting in ignorance and getting in trouble or being harmed for it.
Especially if said tutorials keep up to date and add more answers to people’s questions over time.
After all, being helpful actually helps the pirate community in that more people seed, so helping others is actually win-win. There’s really no downsides whereas expecting others to know everything or being rude stops this from happening and thus is a loss for all of us.
Tutorials can’t cover everything. Once you encounter something completely new, you need common sense to extrapolate from your existing knowledge (which could be from a tutorial or experience, etc).
In the end, whether we’re talking about piracy, work or life in general… You need to be able to adapt to situations, not just read guides.
That’s not to say well-written tutorials shouldn’t exist, but the common sense part is still more important IMO
Sure, but the problem is that people aren’t taught those skills necessarily. So it does help when people are willing to help out in case those skills or ability to do that or for many other reasons aren’t possible.
We get that not everybody can or wants to, but a quick “I’m unable to help you” is fine, yet we see so mahy people being rude instead. Leave space for those who can or want to help instead 🙂
My client doesn’t show these things, and i’m honestly not interested enough in the matter to read someones bio to put their odd form of expression into context, even if it would show them.
For the sake of efficient communication i would suggest adjusting either by putting that context in your comment or by expressing yourself more clearly.
My Lemmy client doesn’t show profiles by default and it’s a pretty popular one. Perhaps it might be wise to introduce yourselves in a sentence or 2 in the future.

Who is “we” in this?
Dissociative identity disorder…
Nope. Plurality.

Yeah, I’ve read this webpage, it’s in your profile. It seems to refer to plurality as DID, for example in the
#mythssection.It also says: “There have been no such studies done on non-clinical plurality yet, but interest has been growing in the field.”
It is also saying that DID is one type of plurality, it is not calling it the only type.
Not all of us have the clinical/medical type of plurality, DID, OSDD etc etc.
If you’re genuinely interested then: https://pluralpedia.org/ explains many more types. Especially this page, gives a basic starter: https://pluralpedia.org/w/Plurality
Okay, thanks for explaining.
Sure thing!

Well, that’s a fault of the client. Really it should be working on such basic functionality, if it doesn’t have it already.
What do you mean?
