Yep, or at the very least it's highly attractive to bigots. Let's just not, ya know?

That one poster the other day was right: unpopularopinion is cancer and needs to be nuked.

Kbin doesn't actually have a feature for blocking instances. What you blocked is the lemmy.world domain, which means posts that count as links to lemmy.world will be blocked. That behavior is also fairly inconsistent.

Fair enough. For my own part I prefer a higher signal to noise ratio. People starting from a position of "there's no way that could possibly work" generally aren't worth my time.

Nah, that's not how it went down. Cats are such weirdos because they domesticated themselves instead of being domesticated by humans, and because they're descended from a small species of wild cat that was both a predator species and a prey species.

Dogs and other domestic animals we molded to suit our purposes, but cats just kind of... showed up. The only selection pressure on them was "tolerate humans just enough to get at the rats in the humans' granaries". If anything, they domesticated us. Their meowing behavior is an attempt to mimic the cries of human babies.

Not criticizing, but I am curious what you were expecting upon joining a "guns" community. Were you looking for more ForgottenWeapons, "check out this cool museum piece" type stuff?

Yeah, the post is fine, but we seem to have attracted the attention of the great dismissive majority.

Hmm, yeah, I see what you mean. Wasn't thinking about having to convert the IDs. Plus the actual local copy of the post needs to be available, not just a connection to the remote instance.
