Phew! This last day there have been some pretty toxic comments on Aussie Zone from people from other instances.
Is it just me noticing or have there been more than usual today?
Starting to understand beehaws move to a more private setting a while back.
^note: i’m not calling for anything, just venting my spleen^
Huh. I was busy yesterday and wasn’t on the site much. I saw that post but some unconscious factor made me skip it. Probably a history of every post on the topic for the past 20 years all regurgitating the same talking points over and over.
Looking at it now, I doubt I’d have stepped in if I had seen it. I think the downvotes did their job and the person wasn’t being abusive or anything.
That said, the report button is right there if someone is breaking site rules - don’t hesitate to use it.
Na, the users i saw were all stating their opinions and they were essentially fine, no rules were broken in my eyes.
It just struck me last night that the way they delivered those opinions was pretty toxic.
