I'm hereby gonna address everyone as "bootlicker" until it becomes an effective replacement for hormone therapy

I was tempted to make that joke but you beat me to it. bridget-smug

[-] Erika3sis@hexbear.net 30 points 1 year ago

Well, bootlicker, they say that great minds think alike, don't they, bootlicker?

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 23 points 1 year ago

[smacks forehad] damn why didn't anyone think of this before, what a groundbreaking thinker

[-] forcequit@hexbear.net 32 points 1 year ago

my comment there doesn't display on my profile this is clearly some kind of anti brigading measure

[-] Freeanotherday@hexbear.net 32 points 1 year ago

Same.

Don't matter. We know our comments will have 60-100 upbears and some comrade will show up and reply for us by morning.

I also can't drill down in comment threads on that post :(

@Freeanotherday@hexbear.net

I actually had this symptom too, and I was like, "that's weird". Then I noticed it's the memes comm on lemmy.ml, which I blocked with great prejudice the first day of federation, so I'm like "I wonder if that has anything to do with it". And yup! That's the answer! If you unblock the memes comm, suddenly you can see the whole of comment threads. I wouldn't be surprised if this is also the "solution" to replies not showing up in your inbox. (I put "solution" in quotes because unblocking the memes comm seems like a terrible plan and not at all worth it just to argue with some libs)

[-] forcequit@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago

Ohhhh you're spot on, I blocked all the meme comms lol

[-] CannotSleep420@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 1 year ago

If I understand correctly, you can't see certain comments unless you unblock a community? If so, that sounds like a bug.

[-] Are_Euclidding_Me@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago

That seems to be the case, yes. Expanding comment threads in communities I've blocked doesn't seem to work.

[-] CannotSleep420@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Is this only affecting comments in the blocked commumity? Or is it affecting comments in non blocked communities?

[-] Are_Euclidding_Me@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

Only blocked communities. It works fine if I unblock them.

[-] Gay_Tomato@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

I think I've had similar issues with not being able to expand when even one person in the thread was blocked.

[-] Freeanotherday@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago

Yup. I 100% blocked the meme comm. Lol

[-] beef_curds@hexbear.net 32 points 1 year ago

This exchange... I can't even be mad, it's adorable.

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 27 points 1 year ago

Just waiting for good one capitalists to set things right. galaxy-brain

"cronies" and "cronyism" or "contacts" and "networking"? idk, i just find it funny when people lament "crony capitalism". as if capitalists don't also know people and form relationships, maybe people who aren't capitalists should also get to know people and form large networks of relationships. then again the capitalist class promote atomization and rugged individualism among the masses for a reason.

[-] sicklemode@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

michael-laugh They literally used the verbose meme format to suggest it was something other than capitalism data-laughing

[-] sharedburdens@hexbear.net 30 points 1 year ago

bugs-stalin I wish certain commentors a very pit

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
