Same thing here. It works. It just feels off.

it feels off, to you. it feels fine to me. does that make me dumb or am I just a different person with different thoughts and feelings than you?

[–] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 5 points 4 days ago

No you're dumb because you're different obviously /s

Doesn't make you dumb, but it could make you seem dumb like pronouncing the "L" in salmon.
