Comment on Are there any Lemmy/Mbin instances by women for women?

  I am more trying to argue that Pinterest and Reddit/lemmy are fundamentally different enough that they aren’t really interchangeable.

  I personally use both, but, again, for wildly different purposes.

    I agree, but at a higher level the analogy works… like a sports car vs a pickup truck vs a minivan. Very different but at the end of the day they are all vehicles and men tend to like one of those more than others, same as women (and no, I am not implying women like minivans… my wife forbade me from getting one when our kids were little and I had given up on a cool car for the convenience of one)

      Well my argument is that they fall under a different analogy. Something like a car and wheelbarrow? They’re both used for transportation, sure, but they also have two distinct functions that don’t cancel each other out.

        Sure but I’m not analysing the characteristics of both platforms; I eas just answerilg the question and it’s a fact that pinterest is the closest thing to reddit but more attractive to women

        I honestly don’t understand why people seem upset by that
