It would be great to cite your sources in this. There's really no indication that the information you provided is accurate or trustworthy. That's what citations are for.

An online space for the vegans of Lemmy.
Rules and miscellaneous:
- We take for granted that if you engage in this community, you understand that veganism is about the animals. You either are vegan for the animals, or you are not (this is not to say that discussions about climate/environment/health are not allowed, of course)
- No omni/carnist apologists. This is not a place where to ask to be hand-holded into veganims. Omnis coddling/backpatting is not tolerated, nor are /r/DebateAVegan-like threads
- Use content warnings and NSFW tags for triggering content
- Circlejerking belongs to /c/vegancirclejerk
- All posts should abide by Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Yeah, I agree but I created it for myself initially then later thought others might also find it useful so I didn't add any.
I agree, without citations it holds no merit. That's not to say it is false of course.
Nice, I just try to eat varied and then I take multi-vitamins, D3 and omega 3 in vegan gummies and B12 from algae in tablet form
I really enjoyed 'Vegan for Life' which was written by vegan registered dieticians. Really practical advice.
That's good, but I found a few problems with it.
You only have ALA for omega-3 in fat, but you also need EPA and DHA (as far as I can find, your body can convert from one to the other, though there's still differences based on which you get). From what I've heard, basically the only vegan place to get those is algal oil. If you're okay with crustaceans being killed (they have vastly simpler minds than even fish), then krill oil is also an option.
You listed Methionine and Phenylalanine in the amino acids, when it should be Methionine + Cysteine and Phenylalanine
- Tyrosine because your body can convert. Also, I understand you need more protein than just what you get from the essential amino acids, so that should be included too.
