First all the bs with Twitter and Elon, then Reddit having an exodus to Lemmy (not complaining lol), then Twitch. Are we like, in an alternate self healing dimension or something?

    Hi settinmoon!

    I understand your frustration and I don’t want to downplay it but I think we can do better than escalating conflicts. Consider reminding people of to be human if you have the energy for it (and I understand if you don’t) or using the report button to report behaviour you think are unnice.

    Thank you

      I don’t think using sarcasm as means to express disagreement, and provide examples so that the other party could better understand your viewpoint should be seen as escalating conflict. The other gentleman’s statement although is something I disagree with, but still well with the boundaries of civil discussion, so I’m not seeing a need to report anything.

      Hey, quick question about that: if I click the report button on content posted by a user of another instance, where is the report sent, Beehaw or that other instance?

        I believe the answer is both. I’ve received reports about things happening outside of Beehaw and inside it about people that are not from Beehaw or from Beehaw reported by people outside of Beehaw and inside it.

        (That’s a really messy sentence but it is 2AM)
