        We all knew this was fake, you were just the only one dumb enough to think others believed it. Ironic.

          You know what, I’ll just copy–paste this here, although I’ve never actually hoarded examples of all the times Lemmy was essentially as dumb as Reddit:

          Several weeks ago, there was this post in a news community to a BBC News article. It was a real article; no tricks, correct headline. But the link was a 404. When I found it, it was upvoted about 20–0. I downvoted it as obviously nonfunctional but also commented remarking that it’s a 404 and giving the OP the correct link. When I came back to that post a couple hours later hoping to upvote a fixed link, the link was unchanged, it was upvoted 50–1 (my downvote), and it had one comment (mine) upvoted 1–0. (Edit: I checked, to preemptively clarify, that this wasn’t a “me” problem.)

          Lemmy users collectively have the media literacy of a housefly.

            In this thread, you’re the one we’re giggling at because you think you’re so clever, yet simultaneously fail to realize that everyone knows this shit is fake. Nobody cares about your previous interactions, just how dumb and smarmy you look here.

              Shit, no, I think you’re right, actually: maybe Lemmy are worth taking seriously because I remember they were smart enough to correct your stupid, confidently incorrect ass the other day with “hurr durr Windows malware can’t run through WINE”.

                I dunked you on that thread, too:

                Hey PieFed user, posting a 5-minute meme video where the guy struggles to make a custom virus do something through Proton isn’t the own you think it is. It literally corroborates my point. Windows viruses and malware will not work through Proton.

                But you never replied. Lmao.

                My guy, if you hate Lemmy so much then what in the Kentucky fried fuck are you doing here?

                  • I like the Reddit/threadiverse format.
                  • I like the fact that it’s free as in freedom.
                  • I like federation.
                  • I like that there are intelligent people; the collective is extremely frustrating and intellectually lazy, but there are actual thought-provoking interactions by people who put in actual effort.

                    Did it ever cross your mind that the real life collective is extremely frustrating and intellectually lazy? So I’m not sure who you think you’re throwing shade at when you whine about “Lemmy”… is it not more or less a representation of the real world?

                    And like the real world, the way to deal with that is not masturbating your intellect by trying to insult literally everyone around you… it’s to know when to speak up, know when to keep it to yourself, and read the fucking room. I’m on the spectrum myself, it took me way longer than I’d like to learn to do this. I still struggle with it.

                    You’re probably actually decently smart. But your autism is going to have people ignoring what you’re saying because you’re being an antisocial dink.

                    2/4 ain’t bad.

                    I like the fact that it’s free as in freedom.

                    Freedom subject to the instance you are signed up to (and posting to) , unless you run your own, but if you do that why are on .world ?

                    I like that there are intelligent people; the collective is extremely frustrating and intellectually lazy, but there are actual thought-provoking interactions by people who put in actual effort.

                    If you are looking for this in a community called “Lemmy Shitpost” i have an exciting bridge based opportunity in which i think you’ll be interested.

                    Being a person of evident intellect, I’m sure you’ll recognise an opportunity when you see one.
