In the past few weeks I feel like I’ve seen a lot more conservative comments being posted on Beehaw. Where before it seemed like occasionally some dazed right-winger would wander through now and then, it now seems a bit more like they specifically show up to any thread that brushes up against one of their pet issues.
The most recent example I’ve noticed is around the stuff with the Ladybird devs being weird about being asked to use inclusive pronouns, but it seems like a pattern.
Has anyone else noticed this? Any thoughts on a course of action other than blocking them all individually or reporting particularly grievous examples?
I really would be disappointed to see every single thread here slowly inundated with pettiness and hate.
I wonder how many actually left Reddit after the initial wave, sometimes.
I personally left and haven’t looked back.
Oh same, I try to not even use it for search results anymore.
One of the pettiest things I’ve seen has been from Reddit. If you deleted your account there, during everyone leaving, looking up a deleted user says, “this account may have been banned by Reddit”.
As fucking if.
If I would have to guess, not much. At least if it wasn’t talked about anymore, which is what I expect.
