effectaffectSorry, I appreciate your post.
Thanks for the info but I purposely only ever use effect. The difference conveys no additional information, and it’s already close to an archaic usage
“Affect” is nowhere close to an archaic usage, if that’s what you mean. But of course you are welcome to spell it however you like.
Oh, interesting, I thought that was the definition of symbiosis!
(Also, don’t forget to escape the parenthesis in your Wikipedia link.)
You were very close, mutualism is a type of symbiosis.
When i click on my links they all seem to work. Maybe my lemmy instance autocorrects it?
