Can we stop talking about that other site that had a migration here? (feddit.uk)

Every other post is about that site.

It’s like getting a new girlfriend but constantly talking about your ex.

I have done that but I am still allowed to have a discussion.

Some people made some valid points against my sentiment, I would not have gotten that had I not posted.

For me it’s important to see opposing views, otherwise what’s the point.

Than make a post about having a discussion. Not a declarative statement of what needs to happen and a subjective sentiment delivered in objective format. You don't start a discussion about immediately saying others are wrong.

I thought the word can was asking a question. Had I used something like you must stop it would have been different.

Where is the question? If you were sincere, which I don't think you are, you could have worded it much better. For example: "Is it better if we do not talk about that site...?"

Yep the girlfriend metaphor is weird since it would make most of us polygamous. Miss my old girlfriend, love the current one and have my eye on several new ones. Calkey….mm she sexy and pixelfed seems like a cool chick as well but more my little sister’s type to be honest
