There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!

Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.


Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca still apply!


Thanks for reading all of this, even if you didn't read all of this, and your eye started somewhere else, have a watermelon slice ๐Ÿ‰.

Why are people quick to ban or block because a comment makes them angry, rather than engage, debate or respectfully strongly disagree and leave the discussion at that?

Why can't people handle talking with someone who has a completely different view who can explain why they are against something that was said?

What is blocking someone if not a way to ignore and refuse to engage with them.

It can show how under developed their character is or reveal a personal weakness.

So you have someone who you refuse to engage in and recognize is a troll. It is your position that it is expected and good to ignore them and scroll past them but using a function that accomplishes the exact same thing programmatically is a personal weakness? Why?
