Mmm, relatively speaking, most reddit posts (>50%) have become low-effort/pandering garbage that isn't worth reading.

You act like that’s a new thing.

Also, case in point: Both our posts have gotten downvoted already. How is that even possible for such benign replies?

I thought we were talking about blocking users, not downvoting them.

The thread we’re in, that I started, was about how unwelcoming Lemmy is for new and casual users. This entire interaction is just highlighting it.

I see your point.

A lot of "technical" users are on lemmy who can't tolerate dissenting opinions. Thankfully the mods seem to be doing a 'decent' job of keeping things in check on both sides.

You’re far more charitable than me. I just see a bunch of immature jerks who think that Android and Linux are a personality trait.
