Well it's good to see that - unlike Lemmy - Reddit users have found a way to bash Windows without using pre-transition images of Elliot Page. So they've got that going for them, at least. (I'm assuming this post is also poking fun at Reddit, for being riddled with ads)
EDIT: Apologies, I shouldn't have made this comment. I'll leave it up, so the replies have some context.
Literally not a fucking clue what you're talking about even after googling that name
Some troglodyte was comparing OSes to Elliot Page's transition.
Sorry. It's from me being too online. Must. Put. Phone. Down.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but that was only one user who made that comparison, and they got downvoted hard for that.
It was two, fwiw. They were also upvoted, and engaged with (which is what the trolls want, of course). I shouldn't have made that comment - it's a sign that I've been on my phone too much this morning. I'll amend it, and then go out for a walk or something.
Well, yes, that transphobic post was very bad yesterday :( It was one person and the poster got a 30 days community ban on lemmy.world (check the modlog). The copy of the post was gone on lemmy.world but was still visible on lemmy.ml later, downvoted a lot.
Creds for leaving it up though.
Classy edit
