Me using my scratched teflon pans.

That's every "non-stick" pan after 1-2 months of daily use.

All non-stick, "scratch resistant" pans are a marketing gimmick designed to have the average consumer-moron buy 30 pans in their lifetime, than simply learn how to season pans properly and hand 2 or 3 Iron/steel pans down their family lineage for generations, across hundreds of years.

Ceramic ones are a bit better but for the most part this is correct. There really isn't a clear reason not to cook with steel or iron, they tend to be the best options for 99.9% of applications. Only thing that I can think of is cooking eggs at a lower temp, but iron does that fine if the seasoning is really good.

My scanpan has been in use for at least 6 years unscratched

I don't even know what my pans are.

😏 be like me and use a cast iron skillet that weighs a ton, never is slick like you see on the internet, and is a removed (really Lemmy? Auto censor?? FFS) to clean

In all seriousness, I just made scrambled eggs on the ol' beast and they turned out decent. Far from non stick but it's non cancer at least.

That's your instance, ml is a turd like that.

[–] MerchantsOfMisery@lemmy.ml 6 points 3 months ago (2 children)

I have no clue how Lemmy works. I made an account and just assumed that was that.

[–] PugJesus@lemmy.world 17 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Each 'instance' has slightly different rules that apply. Mostly it doesn't affect users, as you can interact with other instances just fine.

Lemmy.ml censors a number of common curses and is run by Uyghur genocide deniers.

Well that's unfortunate. What are more ideal instances of Lemmy? Thanks for the explanation, by the way.

I'm on sh.itjust.works and haven't heard of any issues with it, it's been working pretty well.

I believe the ML there stands for Marxist Leninist (one of the flavors of communism)
