Tone policing is classist
Apologies if this is something that you think should be obvious to anyone, but I'm genuinely curious what you mean by "classist" here.
I occasionally encounter assholes from all walks of life and prefer to avoid them all the same. I'm actively in favor of reasonable moderation on social media sites to filter assholes out because it's better for my mental health.
Nobody's saying we can't have differences of opinion and disagreements. But I don't think it's unreasonable that we should be expected to engage respectfully or not at all. This is a standard that should be applied equally to all. It's difficult to do, but we should also strive to hold people we otherwise generally agree with on principle accountable if they're being aggressive/hostile/antagonistic because, at best, they're being a bad advocate of our own positions and, at worst, they're being an asshole.
No worries! I just consider myself lucky that most functionality in Jerboa is right where I'm used to it in Boost for Reddit because apparently that was the model 🙂
Yeah, so Newsweek clearly went with a sensationalist title for clicks, but if you read the article, it presents dissenting viewpoints from others who aren't crackpots.
Is your bookmark button not working for this? There's a bookmark button for every post and comment. And then a bookmark section on the nav bar on the main screen.
And then the Apollo dev proceeded to packet sniff the official app and found their API call usage to be something like 50% higher than his own lol. The gaslighting by Reddit is another layer of insult on top of the already insulting price for API requests.
Thank you so much! Not knowing about this had been been making reading larger threads like this one fairly cumbersome.
I'm actually really curious about hexbear as well. It's a pretty different place over there...
Do Lemmy servers publish their federation lists?
The world would be a better place if we would all live and let live.
Are you talking about in a browser or an app? I just started seeing it pop up in a toast notification occasionally in Jerboa this afternoon. It wouldn't surprise me if it has to do with server load issues.
No wonder I felt right at home as soon as I changed the feed layout to small cards (to better match my Boost preference). You've done a fantastic job reproducing the feeling of Boost!
Lol thank you for that article. I never knew reddit started out by astroturfing their own site. I'm sure they'd probably stopped doing that by the time I joined, but with that, various leadership/admin scandals in the time since, and now gaslighting third party app devs/users, I'm pretty much done with their shit. I might browse communities that haven't gone another direction yet, but I don't think I'm going to contribute anything over there anymore.
