Trigger warning on this. Can't get the spoiler thing to work at all.
Definitely not imagining it.
Since I first joined I went from having nice conversations with strangers about the weirdest things, never having a single negative interaction, to nowadays saying I think women deserve a baseline level of respect and being told I should die giving birth to a rapists baby.
To be fair, the dude who said that did get banned from the instance I'm on for that, but it happening in the first place would have been unthinkable to me a few months ago.
agreed there is a definite influx of misogynistic incels lately. Feel like Iβm spelling out how women are human beings a lot more than I ever had to here before. Conversations are more on the de-evolutionary side.
There's no need to debate misogynists here. Downvote and report them and we'll ban as soon as we can.
This. Most of those guys probably got banned on reddit and drifted here and they'll do the same after getting banned here. No point in wasting brain cells arguing with people who can't think for themselves about right and wrong.
It's amazing how quickly the Internet ruins the Internet. Hopefully we can work together through defederation and as a community that doesn't just let shit slide to keep that 00's era chat and forum feel alive. Either way, good luck out there!
People ruin the internet*
Yeah it fucking sucks
test, spoiler test
eueaouaoeuaoeuaoeThe syntax is a bit confusing. You need to leave the first "spoiler" untouched. You can delete the second "spoiler" to set the title, and then replace the three underscores ___ with your text:
"
my-title
my-text
"
Lol this doesn't work on liftoff for some reason
From what I understand it doesn't work on any of the mobile apps which is unfortunate, but I guess that is the price we pay for not wanting to just use the web browser
I've noticed a lot of app developers have been slow to implement this. Just got it in the latest beta version of Thunder
Probably an issue with my app, but that doesn't seem to work for me.
