I think the way I experience is quite awkward.

I ask them to repeat what they said and then part way through them saying it again, my brain realises what it was first time so I end up agreeing with them while they’re still talking.

One of my motivations behind leaving.

It used to be a place for discussion of ideas. Now almost every story about has hundreds of comments, mostly hating on one group of people or another.

Interesting, I’m using connect as a former baconreader user as the UI feels quite similar

Sounds a bit like Fildo
