"Women are supposed to be very calm generally: but women feel just as men feel … it is narrow-minded in their more privileged fellow-creatures to say that they ought to confine themselves to making puddings and knitting stockings, to playing on the piano and embroidering bags."

Charlotte Brontë's novel Jane Eyre was published #OnThisDay in 1847.

Why are you trying to make click bait headlines for a quote?

It's really getting to the point I need to just block every real namer I see, I don't know if you're home instance formats posts like LinkedIn or what, but you all are just always doing weird shit like this.

@givesomefucks I'm sorry, would you mind elaborating?

(Just to add in case you do: Sorry for upsetting you, and I wish you a pleasant rest of your Saturday!)

The big one is always tagging who you reply to, which for whatever reason goes around Lemmy's block.

But I think the main issue is you all don't even know you're posting to communities when it happens.

This is what your post looks like:

So I'm going to block you again, feel free to reply again but tagging people after they block you is a faux paus and seen as very spammy. And completely unnecessary for Lemmy.

But again, I think the main problem is all you real namers don't even understand you're making posts to these communities. Which is why I'm just blocking the rest I see and not taking this time to explain the posts you all keep making seemingly accidentally.

I'll reply here without tagging you, I was not aware of you having blocked me, or that Lemmy does not respect blocks.

First, I don't know too much about how Lemmy works, clearly, I primarily use Mastodon myself, and I did not go out of my way to have my post show up at that link. It looks like this was reposted by a bot because of the "history" hashtag that I used?

I would suggest blocking accounts that do that, if that's an option for you, it's not really a fault of the people whose post are being reposted to where you can see them.

Also, I am still puzzled by the original response suggesting that a quote from a book is a "click bait headline". Definitely not intended that way.

I'm just on Lemmy.world, browsing "active", and your post shows up like this:

So it looks like it's not a repost by a bot. But never mind me, I've no idea of how any of this works, just posting what it looked like at my end.
