That’s unfortunate, because it’s the opposite of my experience. Maybe I just don’t care, and/or I’ve gotten better at spotting the warning signs of trivial bullshit and then ignoring it.
The trolls feel like insecure outsiders who haven’t matured enough to “get” Lemmy. It’s like they know they aren’t taken seriously, and want the imaginary clout they had on Reddit.
I get that, and I do my best not to feed the trolls, but it feels like they’ve been growing since I first joined. But just because I ignore it doesn’t mean I don’t notice it.
I’ve seen more sealioning than simple trolling. Sometimes, I can’t resist replying, because I’m not sure if they’re genuinely seeing things differently, or just because their games annoy me.
How are you not proving his point? The very first thing I said was “that’s unfortunate”, because I empathize. I also used the word “maybe” because I’m not omniscient and could very well be wrong. Describing my own experience is not “bragging” or “hostile”, and since it’s related to the topic at hand, certainly isn’t arbitrary.
Unlike you, I didn’t lead off with a paragraph of assumptions.
I’m not even touching that ridiculous “group dynamics” bullshit, or the personal insults. They speak for themselves quite well. Have you ever heard of giving someone the benefit of the doubt?
Don’t waste too much effort on your inevitable reply. I won’t be reading it.
