something something don’t let social media cook your brain and warp your view of humanity. humans are far more complex than just formatted XML on a feed
Y’all assume malice far more than things just being ignorance.
I spent 2022 actively trying to not be chronically online and it became super apparent that most people aren’t evil, they just don’t know any better. A lot of of questionable stuff is smart people making bad choices, not evil people making evil choices.
quote toot discourse
To be clear: my position on this has always been that if it’s a native feature and exposed via the API, better tools to block posts from being quotes for users who don’t want it can be built versus these hacks right now
But at the end of the day, I can always screenshot you

paywall discourse
I know rich coming from me: but may I suggest kindness when calling out someone who posted a paywall link?
Paywalls are not universal and publishers use some gross scheme of IP address / device info to figure out if they are going to serve you a paywall or not. Most people posting paywalled links likely did not have the article ve paywalled for them.
I think most reasonable people would not post a paywalled link.
