Is there a banana for scale or does Lemmy use a different model for scale? Beans?

I think all the bananas (and beans) are already in the picture

Well, even the picture is in the picture..

Did I miss something? I didn't down vote them

[–] RecursiveParadox@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Not you I'm sure, but they were at 0 when I posted, so thought I'd note it.

Lucky for us, it is to far away.

How big is this, in real numbers?

That's technically correct.
