    Ok that’s fair. I’ve just never heard of glasses referred to as prosthetics and assumed you meant some kind of artificial seeing device. Which is suppose is what glasses are but I was hoping for a more high tech answer.

      (the account you just replied to isn’t the account with the blind wife who uses prosthetics)

        While this is correct, I AM, in fact, someone who wears glasses and knows some stuff about them and their uses.

          Yep, no shade on you, I just didn’t want the other person to think they’d heard back from the other other person.

            Real question: do other lemmy viewers not show usernames on posts or do a lot of people just not read them? Cause I’ve deffo had other instances of people not realizing they were talking to someone else.

              I use sync and it doesn’t show the username while you are writing a comment. So I might not notice unless I look closely at the notification or at my inbox.

              I think folks just don’t read them. I use Connect and it shows usernames.
