If someone reacts to what you say, don’t react with more reaction. It just gives an excuse not to change, which is ultimately the goal of most people deep down. You acted as a poor reflection of Lemmy to a non-Lemmy user. Forget right and wrong, say less, people are people, what would you want to hear in the other persons situation?
Think its unfair to say they acted as a poor reflection. They acted like a normal human being imo. Any other way would just come across “holier than thou”.
The bottom line is ultimately just that some people want to complain about sitting in shit, whilst doing absolutely nothing to get out of the shit
He could’ve said it better, he was engaging with someone who was upset. No way that person doesn’t get defensive when a two sentence reply gets two paragraph-looking replies. It was like walking up to a crying child and correcting their issues instead of just giving them some candy. Anyone on Lemmy wants to be here, we shouldn’t assume that’s true of everyone looking to leave Reddit too. We’re supposed to be independent, Lemmy should just be one offering of many to those looking to leave.
