Thank you so much for the breakdown. I’m gonna reference back to this a lot while i try to wrap my head around this new space. I’m grateful for everyone’s informative replies and your guys’ good-spirited attitude towards reddit transplants like myself.
I was a long time reddit lurker but I feel compelled to post and it’s responses like yours that made me feel comfortable doing so.
TLDR: Thank you so much to everyone who broke it down for me. I’m having lots of fun in this space because of y’all and I am so excited to continue contributing to it.
