Lemmy has a lot of elitist tech people. They like to be smart, academic and they like systems that move and turn stretching mentally into the world of highly efficient analogue watches which are engineering master pieces. See it goes full circle here, no pun intended, but the watch an engineering piece you can be smart about is expensive and part of an elitist class that implicitly represents certain type of success

Edit: lol see I started reading the other comments literally the other guy that answered you specifically pointed out how it’s normal for him, but for you it should hint you a sign of intelligence
