Hey Rasmus, thanks for commenting! Sorry for my late reply, it seems we don’t yet get notification about comments; I have to fix that.

In my experience, even if we are somewhat aware of some facts, it’s helpful to hear them confirmed by a few other people too. It might help us to accept certain POVs 🙂

Thanks for being part of our new, growing community!
