I try to give the most grace possible. I’ve only ever blocked two users here. That said, I’d totally understand why someone might block me.

I only really blocked power users on reddit and lemmy doesn’t have those yet. Not the same way gallowboob was.
I feel like accounts like PugJesus, PicardManeuver, and LadyButterfly are doing a pretty hefty chunk of Lemmy posts. I don’t dislike any of them (I like how PJ adds little contextual informative notes to their memes and whatnot, Butterfly seems to provide a lot of positivity), but I did add little colored tags to their accounts to help me realize just how many posts were theirs. I don’t know how they manage to stay motivated to keep doing all that posting
Idk what a power user even is
Someone who posts to reddit like it’s their job. They’re normally a mod for a far too many subs, repost already popular memes and probably take payments to push advertisements disguised as memes. I remember a period of time when everyone was posting weird happenings in front of their houses from their doorbell cams. The brand burn ins were always turned on.
Ohhh okay makes sense.
they usually post a ton, on multiple subs at once. think of a like a power-mod on reddi, they control dozens or even hundreds of subs.
luckily lemmy is too small for that, and it somewhat smaller now, since the last big instance went down.
The culture of lemmy is very anti consumer, which helps to insulate it from that. If the normies started moving in, that’s when the problems start.
