Damn you, global warming, and your... receding sea levels?

Hmmm.

yeah I've sorta noticed

Well, today you learned that I can care about something stupid someone else did, and be entertained by how poorly they handled it, all at the same time. I'm glad I could help clarify things for you.

See, to me, you sound like an alt of AdmiralPatrick, or possibly one of his few remaining friends, and seem to be here exclusively to make passive aggressive comments at his detractors and/or run defense for him. I wonder why that would be...

Don't put words in my mouth. I said that I wasn't upset, after you made a comment implying I was and that I should seek out a refund -- I don't use the Tesseract frontend, and never have. That doesn't mean I "don't actually care" about someone trying to play Reddit admin and sneakily impose their will onto the rest of the fediverse.

If you want to make a stupid argument, that's fine; but make it on your own, don't rope me into it.

last I checked, we're still allowed to be entertained by weird things on the internet. if you aren't, I recommend a bit more whimsy in your life.

no, someone tried to turn it into Reddit using their frontend to try and act like an admin on instances they're not an admin on, acting like an entitled reddit powermod/admin doling out shadowbans; and the fediverse collectively told him to fuck himself.

Most people, I'd think, would consider thousands of other people yelling all at once telling you you've done a tremendously dumb thing, to be a fine moment for self-reflection. AdmiralPatrick is not one of those people.

upset? heavens no, this is terrific free entertainment, this is hilarious to watch.

Definitely the actions of a person who should be unquestioningly trusted to be the sole arbiter of determining what is fine and dandy and what goes too far on Lemmy. Totally not indicative of every legitimate concern that every single person opposing this brought up being accurate, surely not!

sick, thanks

I agree, I'm almost sad it's (presumably) over now.

Then again, he already "left" once before (and came back), so who's to say? We might be clowning on him on and off the rest of the year if he keeps it up.
