Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.
RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
- Keep it clean and SFW
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

Somewhere between 3 and 5? I don't know.
Picture a line diagram of an apple, annotated with average dimensions, weight, taste, smell, possible colours, patterns, and whatnot, all cross-referenced to lists of apple varieties, recipes, and other random information about apples.
Now remove the diagram, and leave only the information. No, not as text, or spoken words, just as raw information.
That's the one, whichever number it is.
(This doesn't mean I couldn't draw you an apple, mind, the necessary information is still all there — I mean, I can't, but because my hand eye coordination sucks, not because of the aphantasia; give me a vector drawing software I'm familiar with and I'd probably be able to draw you a pretty cromulent apple.)
