This is exactly the dismissive attitude that has shaped Mastodon development, and why it will never have broad appeal to replace any traditional social media.

The article cites a case of online harassment from right wingers towards an immigration friendly politician that was ultimately shot. Are you seriously using this in defense of “but muh free speech?!”

I just got downvoted for asking for an example of this. I have been using Lemmy quite a bit in the last month (way more than I should) and I have never come across what you’re talking about. I might be wrong, I haven’t seen all the posts created on Lemmy, that is why I’m asking for an example.

If I make the claim that 4chan is full of racist, nazi fucks, that is easy to verify and provide examples of in a few minutes. Similarly, the burden of proof should be on the one making the claim.

There’s multiple sorting types that you can choose for your feed. How do you want your content ordered?

Why the past tense? Is Kbin dead?

Any examples of this? It sounds terrible and should be addressed.

Exactly, this is a good analogy. I actually got the feedback that I was technically qualified and most of the other feedback was positive.

You would expect the candidate to spend 60€ to try out a niche product? If I were in the position I would definitely expect them to research the product and understand how it works (I did), but not to spend that kind of money to use it.

I mean if it was after I started the job that would make sense. You have to know the product you’re working on.

But it seems like a power asymmetry that they have dedicated 1 hour of their time to the interview and I am expected to spend money and more research time, in addition to all the usual interview preparation.

I’ve updated the description to mention that this is definitely not a scam, more like weird and unreasonable behavior.
