This is the thread, and there is only one picture posted in it.
Not all of us use the web interface to read groups.io posts. I, too, didn't know
what the member was referring to and just marked the post as read in my email
client.
Those using email clients to read the posts won't easily be able to figure out
which post it was and how long ago it was that the post was made. Also, many
people reading the posts in an email client don't have threading turned on, in
order to see posts in chronological order, and some delete messages once they
are read, so posts that include no quoted reference make us wonder what the
person is talking about. I've given up on answering posts from this person since
he doesn't include any referenced quotation of the previous post being
referenced unless it's clear what it's about and no quote is needed to make it
clear.
It's considered good netiquette to always include some of the previous message
so the reader can connect the dots easily.
