Yes, I got that. Hence my reply. But they also make up less total numbers than the rest of the user base. That’s not the case here because the user base is so small.
Mmm, relatively speaking, most reddit posts (>50%) have become low-effort/pandering garbage that isn't worth reading.
You act like that’s a new thing.
Also, case in point: Both our posts have gotten downvoted already. How is that even possible for such benign replies?
I thought we were talking about blocking users, not downvoting them.
The thread we’re in, that I started, was about how unwelcoming Lemmy is for new and casual users. This entire interaction is just highlighting it.
I see your point.
A lot of "technical" users are on lemmy who can't tolerate dissenting opinions. Thankfully the mods seem to be doing a 'decent' job of keeping things in check on both sides.
You’re far more charitable than me. I just see a bunch of immature jerks who think that Android and Linux are a personality trait.
