    It doesn’t matter if it was created before Ask Yahoo or if it’s older.

    It does if you’re calling it a “knockoff” of a lower-quality site that was created years later, which was what I was responding to.

    edit: btw, you’ve linked to the profile of the asker of that question, not the answer to it that /u/half_built_pyramids quoted.

      Great.

      So the social media site is older than I thought, and the person who made the comment on that site is a lot stupider than it seemed.

      Like, Facebooks been around for about 20 years. Would you take a link to a Facebook comment over PBS?

        My man, I said nothing about the science or the validity of that comment, just that it’s wrong to call Ask MetaFilter “some Ask Yahoo knockoff”. If you want to get het up about an argument I never made, you do you.
