That is the best description of Reddit users I’ve ever seen. And I guarantee you they’d downvote you for saying it even though you’re right lol

And, this comment attracted exactly the type of annoying users we’re talking about.

So, the replies in this thread have brought about my first use of the block button(x3). Thanks to whoever suggested liberal use of it. Definitely recommend.

You’re looking out for OP. What a nice guy

What really made me want to leave lemmy more than anything so far was seeing a completely negative reaction to anyone calling out the Kissinger death posts being spammed like junk mail all over the fediverse.

“What? You don’t like seeing the same post 50 times in one day? Fuck you, downvoted. I wanted this guy dead so any post gets an upvote from me”

That’s the kind of attitude that will drive users away and turn this venture into a political liquid shit puddle. We need variety. Not an echo chamber. Lemmy was quite literally unusable during that period so I stopped opening it.

Also how some people don’t want Lemmy to grow because they like the smaller community feel, while simultaneously putting off a groupthink attitude that will only shrink it more. Essentially a kind of sentiment that lemmy should be what they want, and not what’s best for the platform and majority of users overall.

Mace windu was actually strong as fuck though. Like he genuinely bested sidious in saber combat. It wasn’t an act.

Also, I read once that obi wan and anakin were so used to sparring together that the difference in power didn’t matter.

Still possible. Not like either of the movies happened on his birthday so he could’ve been almost 20 and ESB occurred just over 2 years after.

There’s a difference between internet user base and who’s making pull requests like above

As long as this isn’t a 40 year old man I don’t see a problem

Imagine being hired to help prevent people from fucking something up, only to fuck that thing up in your first week—not once, but twice. You’d think after the first time it wouldn’t happen again…

I wonder if there’s a way around this that we can create, instead of doing nothing or hoping google adapts.

Like a dummy instance that catalogues everything on all instances (but also links to the original posts) for the purpose of showing up on google search.

Since this instance isn’t for posting but for search engine indexing, there may be some otherwise undesirable micro-optimizations that can help improve its chances of showing up.
