Yeah we have no clue what he went through before he found my parents. He's a tough cookie with a mind of his own and I absolutely love everything he is and does ♥️
My Stan is about 8 or 9 (he showed up at my parent's back in 2016 and I ended up adopting him -- no clue when he was born) and I can only hope he lives at least that long! Hate is a powerful force, so I'm rather confident he'll never die now. To Stanley! 🥳
I used Sync for Reddit for about 10 years but with the switch to the Fediverse I've adopted more of a FOSS mindset.
My initial reaction was vitriolic for no other reason than being disappointed due to my own expectations. I'm sure it's still a great app and I still absolutely appreciate and respect lj; it's just not for me anymore. But that doesn't give me the right to force my opinion on others.
Ultimately I'm just happy we're growing and I believe that's what we should be focussing on.
Please don't assume that you sound, or believe that you are, stupid or clueless. Whatever you're going through won't get any better if you beat yourself up, even sarcastically. Take care, you'll pull through!
You suck.
