Fucking hell, ain’t it.
Don’t you love the ones too when you use the words ‘most’ or ‘some’ to try and describe a group of people who do things you don’t like or wouldn’t universally be well-received or criticized, and somehow someone will always pop up with “ACKSHULLY, I KNOW ABOUT A HANDFUL OF PEOPLE WHO’RE NOT LIKE THAT!” and we’re to take their word for it?
Like, it is blatant ignorance to bypass the words ‘most’ and ‘some’ and twist them into the context to assume you must mean everyone.
It’s about as bad over there too. Lemmy has a proclamation of about thousands of users on paper, but about less than half of them are even active. Whereas with Reddit, you’ve got millions to deal with including the bots. So I don’t think ‘calmness’ is really accurate with Reddit.
