sometimes I fear Lemmy is becoming like reddit, with every conversation being a fight with no leeway on the smallest things. which makes me more defensive, which makes me part of the problem. sorry.
No problem. I get it entirely. I’ve been on your end of it many times. Today even, I had multiple people criticizing something I said without any understanding of what I was even saying.
Thanks for recognizing being defensive there. And I understand feeling that way, it happens to me a lot. Sometimes people are trying to add to the conversation, which is what I intended to do here, but trust me I know all too well that it’s far too often “nuh uh idiot, I don’t care what you’re saying but it’s dumb and wrong!”
