@ERDonnachie I never said that. What I did _imply_ was that it comes out as rude and ungrateful to ask for help with a problem and, when offered a solution, just dismiss it as “too complex”.

You could have just said: “I'll look that up”, and I would have replied with an honest: “If you run into any problems, just message me and I'll do my best to guide you through the process”.

If you want to adapt anything to your own way of doing things, you'll run into complexities. That's a fact of life. Even on Twitter, everybody complains at every little UI modification, but, after a while, they keep using it like nothing happened.

In your particular case, all you had to do was change instances to get quote-posts. Is that really so complicated? You already registered at least once here. It's the exact same process for any other instance. You don't even have to close your current account if you're not sure about the move. Having alts (i.e., alternative accounts for different use cases or just to try other instances) is common here. Where is the complexity?
