Stirring doesn't matter. The rinse after really matters for it to not stick together. (I had displeasure of eating a portion from 15kg of pasta slab that had no chance of proper rinse, bottom was charred)

I have actually never seen this before. Other comments are saying its because you dont salt your water and i do so probably thats why. It also makes the taste better so overall recommended.
Do you cook your pasta in a large pot, with plenty of boiling water, and a good amount of salt? Usually I just stir once just after putting the pasta in, and I never have noodles sticking together.
It depends on the pasta (form, freshness, self-made... etc). Some has to be steered 3-4 times others just once, in my experience.
Little olive oil in the water. Problem solved.
Is this a meme I'm too Italian to understand?
Yeah, I also don't get it. I don't stir pasta, maybe once in the middle. It never sticks.
My biggest gripe with cooking instructions is the non-specificity. “Stir pasta frequently”? How frequently? How continuously? Tell me in unit Hertz
What kind of dumb instructions are that?
Stirring exactly once is enough in most cases.
Y'all need to salt your water.
It prevents nearly all the sticking and it makes pasta delicious
It's not the salt that prevents the sticking. You use a larger pot with plenty of water. Still delicious though :P
Yea, and not cooking it for too long.
