Very well-stated (& calm) response to what is turning into a heated discussion about users on the hexbear.net instance (lemmy.one)

Every bestof thread has this comment.

Stop.

Someone venting isn't even quality, let alone bestof quality.

Stop.

Oh wow, an equally no-effort all-purpose response, what a fucking surprise.

None of you ever know what you want from this sort of community. What the fuck does the best of lemmy look like, if not people picking out especially insightful randos?

The fact it's someone slagging on an instance that everyone takes issue with does not mean that instance is less of a problem. Maybe - just maybe! - everyone vents about dealing with their shit because they're a bunch of assholes. Maybe the problem is real. A dry reading of how and why they're a problem, and what they could do differently if they actually fucking cared, is not an invitation for you to roll your eyes and act like that's nothing.

It is very difficult to take you seriously when you attempt to play the victim in receiving a low effort response to your own low effort comment. Don't dish it out of you can't take it.

The bar is exceptionally low for something to be considered bestof around here and this still misses it by a mile. The linked comment accomplishes quite literally nothing; It doesn't make any cogent points, it doesn't provide any actionable information, it's just venting and asking that Hexbear users stop being so mean.

Fuck else is someone supposed to say to yet another blank nothing 'well this isn't bestof' whinge? What a meatless scrap of bone comment. Pointing out your short dismissive comment is not hypocrisy on my part; whining about short dismissive comments is hypocrisy on yours.

And your list of things the linked comment doesn't do is a list of things it does in fact do. The hell did you read instead?
