      Yeah, OP has made this post and one other comment…

      They could have posted anything else and been the change they wanted, now they’ll get notifications from people talking about the one thing they dislike enough to make a post?

      I’ll never understand the logic behind that shit, the last post was 13 hours ago, just make a different post instead of one complaining about every other posts.

        It’s a meta discussion about the direction they want the sub to take.

        Sitting down and discussing something that you don’t like, so you can avoid it more in the future, is not the contradiction so many people in this sub seem desperate to make it.

          Though, it does help to make a good faith effort to add content you’d like to see more of

            Agreed. It could absolutely be that this person just likes to complain. But this whole “talking about banning things you don’t thing belong in this community is really just talking about it too” is a ridiculous “gotcha.”

    You can block posts by keywords, including Elon musk if you like

    Ex. Voyager, settings, filters and blocks, add a filter keyword

      Ha, my thoughts exactly. I’ve dipped out of Lemmy for a few weeks, just dipped back in today. “I wonder if it’s still wall to wall Musk?” I thought, logging in; and this was the first post I see.

        I just got into lemmy, and compared to reddit he seems refreshingly scarce here. Come to think of it so does Bonespurs.

          Their shills are less present here. These “influencers” spend good money on this engagement slop.

          Warren baffet too… Just endless ducking articles to generate “positive” engagement. I don’t get this daddy worship shit esp from adult men

            A coworker actually referred to trump as daddy once. Out of dead silence, he said to another coworker, “You know, daddy is gunna be in the area soon.” I continued to evesdrop, as I wanted to hear who coworker #2 thought of as ‘Daddy’ with no context. He hesitantly said the names of a few managers in confusion, and the first guy corrected him and mentioned it was the former president.

    Pretty sure people have said the same thing about all the ultra rich in every generation. I’m just hoping that Musk goes the way of Howard Hughes

    Feel free to downvote and ignore them. Presumably, the people who posted them thought that they were worthy, and I doubt their minds were changed by your non-argument here.
