You are not dumb. I think your client app for Lemmy is not showing table properly. In Jerboa and Eternity, I can see table properly, and I think I now understand the mistake that is happening. Lemmy has a word limit for posts, and so, I created rest of the post in the form of chained comment below.

You probably missed the post, and this has been a bit of a bugger compared to Reddit’s 40000 character limit, but it also keeps the storage needs lower for instance hosters.

Scroll down, I think your client is fine.
