    I’ve heard a saying, two things you should never do on the Internet are argue or explain. It takes up a lot of mental energy and time to do it for no reward.

      I think in many cases the people who explain things are doing a huge service. They’re silently appreciated by many. The true GOATs of the internet.

      I’ve read so many great explanations on Reddit for things in math, science, literature, etc and I feel very grateful to the people who explained them.
