Gotcha
To be fair, your response was entirely appropriate for actual misogyny. Sorry for the false alarm.
It's great to see healthy interactions here
It's so much better than the cesspit of neckbeards that is reddit!
Even the neckbeards are leaving reddit now
It's mostly just bots
You can't even be sure you're arguing with real idiots anymore, there's a decent chance you're just arguing with a prompt spat out by Claude or one of the GPTs intending to get you arguing in the comments
I don’t normally upvote shit like…
But this, I upvoted everyone because I saw the whole fallout afterward and I like the interaction.
“Oops no fr I fucked up not indicating I was joking”
“Oh cool that’s all? Nbd.”
I’m here for that shit: if that’s what Lemmy was as a whole, the world would be a better place, legit.
Damned right
I think we forget to reinforce the positive, because we're so used to being negative
It helps, here on Lemmy, that there is no financial incentive to promote users being absolute shitheads; unlike certain other social media outlets (i.e. all of them).
