Why are you trying to make click bait headlines for a quote?
It's really getting to the point I need to just block every real namer I see, I don't know if you're home instance formats posts like LinkedIn or what, but you all are just always doing weird shit like this.
@givesomefucks I'm sorry, would you mind elaborating?
(Just to add in case you do: Sorry for upsetting you, and I wish you a pleasant rest of your Saturday!)
The big one is always tagging who you reply to, which for whatever reason goes around Lemmy's block.
But I think the main issue is you all don't even know you're posting to communities when it happens.
This is what your post looks like:
https://lemmy.world/comment/12971723
So I'm going to block you again, feel free to reply again but tagging people after they block you is a faux paus and seen as very spammy. And completely unnecessary for Lemmy.
But again, I think the main problem is all you real namers don't even understand you're making posts to these communities. Which is why I'm just blocking the rest I see and not taking this time to explain the posts you all keep making seemingly accidentally.
Also published on this day, but in 1953, the dystopian novel Fahrenheit 451, inspired by the book burnings in Nazi Germany.
"So now do you see why books are hated and feared? They show the pores in the face of life. The comfortable people want only wax moon faces, poreless, hairless, expressions."
