Even on an individual level, like what is the point of blocking someone if they can still fully interact with your posts and comments, just you can't see it.
That's a mute, when Xitter tried (or did? Idr) to downgrade their actual block to essentially the same thing that Lemmy has now it was met with outrage.
Proper blocking should be a core feature of any social media, it's not a 'nice to have' feature that can be developed when there's time for it
because preventing others from "interacting" with an account relies on their instance respecting yours.

That's not really an excuse to half ass it, there's lots of things a rouge instance could do and that's one of many reasons defederation is a thing

20 quatloos on the newcomer!

Also we're smarter than Reddit.
...like, did you know Kremlin, is very close to the word Gremlin? How about that.
I like gremlins but I dont like kremlins so what do I do with that knowledge

People who are actually smart, regardless of their IQ score, know that IQ is a terrible measure of intelligence and would never brag about it.
people who actually have high IQ go "man i wish i was normal so i could get a job"

then don't call it block, call it mute

Good thing Lemmy is safe since .ml folks agree with MAGA on lots of things.
It's great seeing shitlibs building their campfire mythology in real time

120 is the minimum for above average. I wouldn't consider it "high". (Not ragging just being honest, I'm also in the 120's)
Well the average is normed to 100. So 120 is not the minimum for above average. The top 9% of population would be above 115iq.
While high IQ is more of a diagnosis than anything, the statistics are real. I don't know why you don't want to consider top 9% as "high".
What is high in your opinion?

most common thing in the world is unattained potential
Didn’t somebody say something like that?
Finally I can feel good that my not-giving-a-shitism is common and normal

Redditors thinking they're the first line of defense against fascism is hilarious. The call is coming from inside the house.
Also, anyone who refers to themselves as "high IQ" is not worth listening to. In fact they might be even stupider than anyone who's actually intelligent.
I know right - a platform that bans people for anything that goes against a mods narrative - absolute clownery

I often muse about how can the vast majority of people have an above average IQ ... according to them that is.
wrote on last edited by [email protected]Selection bias. The nature of Reddit and its past as a liberal free speech zone lends (lended?) itself to particular traits. Reddit's average user is some combination of the following:
- male
- in a STEM job or training/educated for STEM work
- grew up middle-class
- downwardly mobile
- has ADHD or autism
Altogether this does actually mean IQ probably trends a bit higher on average. That doesn't mean shit for the quality of your arguments if you don't critically examine your beliefs though, and anyone spouting American media talking points is not examining anything.

Anytime people say things like high IQ my opinion drops.

Yeah it reeks of people who took an online "IQ test" and got a high score so they've molded their entire personality around it.

wrote on last edited by [email protected](I didn't mean Reddit, just overall people/the world. Tho not disagreeing directly, but the way you described the average Redditor might end up in their page/ads & marketing/shareholder meetings. Also not sure if any of the 5 points correlates highly with iq. Again, not disagreeing, & the last bit of your comment makes it perfectly clear you arent relating that to any sort of quality.)
