  • whatever you say about discord, all i can hear is “you don’t own the data, you don’t control the servers, and the terms of service are subject to the whims of a for-profit corporation”

    no feature set, and no “community” built on such a platform can convince me it’s worth my time to use it for anything more than bare utility. for instance, sometimes my pokemon tournaments require i join a discord. i install the app for the course of the tournament.


















  • my inbox on lemmy. there are users who will follow me from thread to thread harassing me about an argument we had days ago, or will bring it up out of context if i reply to them, which happens often when i don’t pay attention to the username. some of them make posts an comments whining about how biased the mods are when their harassing comments are removed or they get banned, and some have even gone so far as to start maintaining multiple identities to continue to spread misinformation and harass me and other users.

    and the invitation to see my inbox was a bit hyperbolic. in truth, you only need to look at my comment history and the few individuals with whom i have had protracted disagreements should leap out at you.

    some people will definitely follow you around online if you rub them the wrong way.
