        Appreciate the advice, but I was aware of it. I was just in a hurry though, so I did a quick copy and paste and moved on. Figured the information would be conveyed well enough as is.

          Fair enough.

          Personally the “learn more noun” bit tripped me up for a moment, so I thought to mention after figuring it out. The information is appreciated regardless.

            Yeah, I was just doing a community service after having done the lookup for myself, so I figured anyone with any reasonable mindset would forgive me for it not being formatted perfectly, considering it’s still very readable.

            The information is appreciated regardless.

            You’re welcome. It was a easy ‘low-hanging fruit’ way of making Lemmy a little bit better for all.
