Advocates for the use of trigger warnings suggest that they can help people avoid or emotionally prepare for encountering content related to a past trauma. But trigger warnings may not fulfill either of these functions, according to an analysis published in Clinical Psychological Science.
“Snowflake is a derogatory slang term for a person, implying that they have an inflated sense of uniqueness, an unwarranted sense of entitlement, or are overly emotional, easily offended, and unable to deal with opposing opinions”
idk, you keep using this word but it applies more to your comments than to people that are just dealing with trauma…
Also, I don’t use filters but I’ve heard from people that do that they are bad cause they might filter some things you’re okay with. Context matters.
That’s their problem. The thing here is you’re complaining about CW because you have to CLICK it, and can’t understand it’s useful for some people. Instead, you keep complaining and saying it’s useless.
Can’t you be a bit empathic? Like “I don’t understand CW but some people want them, I can deal with having to click through the warning”. Or are you entitled to open things in one click over other people feeling comfortable?
“these traumatised people” lol. It’s not even about that. The most common CW that you probably use and enjoy is the NSFW warning. You understand that you might be at work and not wanting to see nudity or gore or other sensitive stuff, right? If you’re eating while you’re browsing posts, maybe you want a “CW: poop” before you open a post and barf a bit because you’re eating, not because you can’t handle poop.
And yeah, “everyone else” is supposed to accommodate the minorities. Your rhetoric reeks of alt-right, I guess you’re “inconvenienced” by reserved parking spots, and for inclusive language, and want to “get rid of them” too?
Why care so much about getting people out of reddit? We should just strive to improve what we have, for ourselves, and people will come in time if they like it.
Having 100s of bots posting just drowns the actual people, and honestly I prefer a post with 5 genuine comments than 200 reposted comments, especially since the quality of those comments is debatable.
Also, why would I comment in a ghost town where I know nobody will read what I type?
Some people think that you need thousands of comments and views and posts for “success”, but I feel way better hanging around Lemmy, small as it is, than I ever felt in reddit (except in some small subreddits).
Does anyone have any links for reverse engineering Spotify DRM? I didn't necessarily need it for myself, have plenty of music, and it would be a pretty inefficient means of piracy vs. BitTorrent or like yt-dlp, but I'm curious how it works.
It always seems to me like the analog gap is particularly gaping with audio, and I wonder how far down to the metal it's protected.
