Thanks for writing this
Needed that (about something else but still thanks)
No problem buddy!
You having read my comment and benefited from it means that me writing it wasn't time wasted :)
This is why I love Lemmy. There's a recognition that we're all imperfect beings stuck in this crazy thing called "life" together. It only makes sense to support each other.
I really want this mindset to be everywhere, not just on Lemmy. I wish everyone had the support mechanisms that people need to survive.
An issue in some situations is a small number of people abuse the fuck out of the support mechanisms available. This leads people to agree with "we shouldn't provide it if it's going to be abused". Which they're obviously incorrect in stating.
I've never seen Star Trek, but if applied to reality it should be "The needs of the many outweigh the desires of the few"
