    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.

        • 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.

            Freedom subject to the instance you are signed up to (and posting to)

            Referring to the underlying software, not to moderation. Which is sort of a corollary to federation, but not entirely when you look at something like Bluesky where you can federate but don’t truly run your own “Bluesky”. Sure there’s implicit trust in what the instance is running since you aren’t auditing it, but I’m willing to see shades of grey and that this is better in that regard than corporate social media.

            If you are looking for this in a community called “Lemmy Shitpost”

            Not really (although a number of people on Lemmy put in the effort to make clever, homebrewed shitposts, which is beside the point). Sometimes Lemmy Shitpost just has funny stuff that makes for a more well-rounded social media experience. I never said I’m only looking for thought-provoking interactions; intelligent company doesn’t have to be self-serious. The whole reason I even made my original comment is that I’m persistently disappointed that I can’t walk into a thread about an obvious fiction made as a joke and think that Lemmy collectively understands the difference. Something that is funny turns into a source of frustration when I consider user behavior I’ve seen on Lemmy before.

              That’s fair.

              Perhaps people’s definition of funny differs from yours, not everyone is looking for intellectual gold in a community made specifically for shitposts.

              Though i will concede that there are a lot of cases of mistaken intention, i would know, i’m like 50% mistaken intention.
