On the other hand, an isolated community can also become a nasty brewing pot, reinforcing harmful behaviors and even intensifying them over time.
I don’t think calling them safe spaces for hateful assholes is accurate, but I understand frustrations with them.

There’s at least one interesting fellow in this very thread sharing extremely predictable opinions.
I thought I was annoying when arguing. Still do, but I found someone worse. Doesn’t make me feel better, because it seems I’m sharing a table with them.

Hey, I agree that MV3 brings benefits (such as better security for the extension ecosystem), but it’s worth noting that uBlock’s main dev themselves said it won’t work as well. uBO Lite doesn’t work fine, it works. It’s also worse.
And the same fundamental issue that affects ublock—the new API limits—affects everyone else trying to do the same job using extensions.

The more I see how people use downvotes, the less I like them as a feature in general. I make a point to not downvote things anymore.
- Everyone can upvote, which already brings the most popular content to the top. Why does the system need another dimension to it?
- If I disagree with someone enough to act on it, it’s my rule to explain why. A minus one is often nearly useless as feedback.
- Then, when I’ve replied, what’s the point of downvoting? Everyone can read my thoughts.
- Replies can also be upvoted, for people who think truth comes down to a battle of internet points.
- If I honestly believe something is bad or harmful for the community, it should probably be reported, not (just) downvoted.
Downvotes as they are seem like bad design on the human interaction level.

It doesn’t quite fit into my list because it seems to be paid, but it looks wonderful, thanks.

Sometimes, there are already resources explaining better than we could. And although I’m unsure if this case qualifies, there are definitely topics that can’t be reduced to a few sentences. Thus, a reputable link is often worth more to both sides: it saves the explainer time and effort while informing the target far better.
If you don’t want to engage with the content, I believe there are better ways to go about it than being rude to people who were likely trying to help.

- DATAWING was short & sweet.
- Transmission is full of pretty and interesting puzzles
- Simon Tatham’s Puzzles is a godsend
- I found Mindustry through the play store
I don’t know, anon, I had fun.

That’s one of the nicest things I’ve read here, thank you.

To explain? It’s 'cause I get sad when people go, “wow, took me a while to get it!” but nobody explains it to those who don’t.

At the risk of ruining the joke, to those who don’t yet get it, I hope this helps. Try looking at the panels again first, though!
Give up yet?

Can confirm it looks like crap on my mobile app of choice (Thunder). I’d consider that an app issue rather than a content one, though.
