Yes, I understand how publicly accessible social media works.

Saying "No one asked" in a public forum is the dumbest comeback someone can come up with. Do you not understand what Lemmy is? No one is asking anyone for opinions, but adding yours to a conversation is inviting others to add theirs...

You can always find a private instance and only interact with opinions you like.
