Ok, let me go in depth, as that too stupid to understand conclusion is actually the one I came to.

Reddit mirroring, which was poor word choice on my part, refers to the fact that Lemmy is just a federated version of reddit. The UX is entirely the same. Whether or not you are a reddit user has nothing to do with this.

The community basis of Lemmy, the site we're currently on, comes from reddit as the other user was talking about. So does the importance of keeping the discussion boards to their topics.

Your relation to reddit is completely irrelevant in this discussion.

Was that simple enough for you? Or do you need pictures?

The UX is entirely the same.

I don't think the UX is ultimately relevant to what the person I was responding to was saying. They were distinctly talking about the content, and specifically the content "before Lemmy", of which I have no familiarity, as I did not use Reddit at that time.

The community basis of Lemmy, the site we’re currently on, comes from reddit

As someone who's been here since before the reddit exodus in June, it's hard for me to agree with this. We've had someone of an Eternal September, but the community is based on FLOSS advocates and communities.

So does the importance of keeping the discussion boards to their topics.

"The importance of keeping discussion boards to their topics comes from reddit" doesn't really make sense and is non-sequitur, but even if I accept it, whether reddit did it or not is irrelevant. Communities here are often run and managed distinctly from how Reddit is. And as the person I was responding to pointed out and you conceded, this post actually came from Reddit anyways, so it's a moot point.

Your relation to reddit is completely irrelevant in this discussion.

I'm glad we agree on this. My relation to reddit is largely irrelevant to this discussion, and only relevant insofar as to my familiarity with a particular era of reddit the person I was responding to wanted to see return.

Was that simple enough for you? Or do you need pictures?

It'd be pretty funny if you threw in some pictures tbh.
