I got some restriction for being too sarcastic about Elon and his sycophants, did dang get you yet? It blocks me from posting for a while if I do several at once. I just quit using the site shortly after that. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] dgerard@awful.systems [S] 6 points 2 years ago (1 child) they don't actually want people commenting, apparently, so there's a throttle permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] jkrtn@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 years ago For everyone? That's idiotic. It's killed all my desire to engage, because I'll want to respond to someone, hit the wall, and just leave for several days. Eventually the several days seems to have become forever. I thought that was the point after dang specifically told me to "be respectful." If it's for everyone that's completely idiotic. I guess I shouldn't be surprised. The site is not about having good conversations, but getting youths to risk doing a startup in order to fill Paul's pockets. permalink fedilink source parent
