We disagree actually, it's to have well written tutorials and not to rely on the idea that people can just know things from nothing.

We get the frustration in this meme but honestly, we never liked this kind of attitude in tech spaces, it's exclusionary, gatekeepy and harms people. We understand not wanting to answer every single question but some well written tutorials etc to link to are better than having everyone starting in ignorance and getting in trouble or being harmed for it.

Especially if said tutorials keep up to date and add more answers to people's questions over time.

After all, being helpful actually helps the pirate community in that more people seed, so helping others is actually win-win. There's really no downsides whereas expecting others to know everything or being rude stops this from happening and thus is a loss for all of us.

Yeah, I've read this webpage, it's in your profile. It seems to refer to plurality as DID, for example in the #myths section.

It also says: "There have been no such studies done on non-clinical plurality yet, but interest has been growing in the field."

It is also saying that DID is one type of plurality, it is not calling it the only type.

Not all of us have the clinical/medical type of plurality, DID, OSDD etc etc.

If you're genuinely interested then: https://pluralpedia.org/ explains many more types. Especially this page, gives a basic starter: https://pluralpedia.org/w/Plurality
