16. I access DU on an old iPhone.

I also have a privacy setting that means I have to log in every time I refresh the page.

I'm not very technically adept and it's somewhat challenging for me to post an OP in LBN. I have to open two browsers on my phone and toggle between them to copy and paste the headline and link. If I want to post excerpts, by that time DU has usually logged me back out so I have to edit my OP.

I thought about doing that and decided not to. I wasn't being deliberately difficult or inconsiderate.

The article actually isn't all that interesting except as an example of how TrumpCo is continuing to get even small details wrong.

I agree with you about the clickbait videos and such but in LBN there are strict rules. I copied the headline exactly and WaPo's article supports the headline.
