All I see are rows of empty questions. Did something scare everyone away? Don’t tell me everything got empty after the last drama happened.

    No idea about anyone else, but I tend to only chime in if the question spurs some kind of thought, or I have a story that matches, or some other kind of quasi useful input.

    So it can be weeks before I jump in, or multiples in the same day.

    Askreddit was always lame as shit. We’re on lemmy to have vicious massive arguments that are completely inscrutable to anyone right of Kim Il-Sung.

      Ah, the proudest of leftist traditions: Disagreeing with other leftists. Serves us right for not being brain-dead reactionaries. Can’t spell critical thinking without the C, I and A.

        I’m mostly being hyperbolic. Struggle sessions pop up on lemmygrad or hexbear every few months or so, but they’re no big deal.

      Good point, everyone filled up their block lists because of the shitty election and the shitty First-past-the-post voting system dividing the working class against itself.

      Don’t forget to block me to!

        If I block you, you’ll still be exposed to the blinding genius of my politics. You just won’t be able to reply in a way I’ll see.

        Is that what you want?

        How is linking to freely and publicly available information to their profile links considered doxxing?

          It looks like it’s a different situation. One thing is linking one account to other account, if it’s relevant. Other thing is leaving all your stuff at once, perfect for someone stalking you. That person was completely stalking that user.

    I know beggars can’t be choosers and if every rule breaking post was removed this community would probably only have a few posts left- but frankly, most of the questions just aren’t very good

    Nothing but anecdotal, but it kinda looks like Bluesky is becoming a thing. Couple that with a lot of people taking a step back from the world right now.

      brazil jumped from twitter, that was a huge part of it. the election caused another wave.

      bluesky is just twitter with faux-federation. it will end up with the same issues eventually when its board decides to recoup.

      The dotnet conference is happening right now and I was surprised to hear a couple of the speakers advertising their Bluesky. They had accounts on other social media too, but that seemed to be their main one. These are tech enthusiasts so it makes some sense, but it’s always seemed like an afterthought whenever I’ve seen profiles linked before.

    that’s in interesting perspective since i’m seeing the opposite with responses to all the questions.

    i go through asklemmy every morning while i’m caffeinating at the start of each day because the questions usually wake me up with a WTF or a TIL.

    i must be on their blocked list. lol

    also: i wonder at how it weighs on your soul & outlook to feel like you have to curate such a list in a safe space.
