Need to make a primal scream without gathering footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid!
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cut’n’paste it into its own post — there’s no quota for posting and the bar really isn’t that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many “esoteric” right wing freaks, but there’s no appropriate sneer-space for them. I’m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged “culture critics” who write about everything but understand nothing. I’m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. They’re inescapable at this point, yet I don’t see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldn’t be surgeons because they didn’t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I can’t escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
Not a big sneer, but I was checking my spam box for badly filtered spam and saw a guy basically emailing me 'hey you made some contributions to open source, these are now worth money (in cryptocoins, so no real money), you should claim them, and if you are nice you could give me a finders fee. And eurgh im so tired of these people. (thankfully he provided enough personal info so I could block him on various social medias).
Possibly tea.xyz or similar.
Basically the guy famous for the
binary tree invert algorithmHomebrew package manager thought it would be a great idea to incentivize spammy behavior against open source projects in the name of “supporting” them.https://www.web3isgoinggreat.com/?id=teaxyz-spam

starknet-io actually, so there is more of this crap.
Could be the system the commenter posted to is having trouble federating to your instance. So their comment is federated from their system to the community instance, but not from the community instance to yours.
Edit: nevermind, this is all on the same instance.
I got the same thing.
From a guy called N… Vi…? (I’m not going to further call the guy out, that is just a bit weird to hate on a single weird person).
