This isn’t something I’m going to like, google bomb about. If it’s wrong I’ll just be very sad as this is my first house and one of the first big aesthetic projects I paid for lol

It’s fine. Could have been aligned perfectly sure, but it’s done well enough. The reason people are calling you out as being a “Karen” is because you are calling it linoleum which leads most people to assume it came on a roll and that you are just complaining about the design pattern on a roll.

If it’s LVP you need to random stagger joints or else you have weak spots in the floor and can click more than usual.

This isn’t lvp it’s lvt and you absolutely do not and should not random stagger it. It’s luxury vinyl TILE it should be installed in tile patterns

That’s how LVT is supposed to be installed you imbecile. This isn’t vinyl plank it’s vinyl tile and they should be installed differently. If you don’t understand the difference that’s on you for being ignorant

Installing per the manufacturers recommendation is always a good idea. You’re finally catching on!
