Yeah flagging is the most extreme, for things that really don’t have anything to do here. It’s rare that a flag-able story ends up on the front page, to be fair, but a COVID magical cure or a propaganda piece for the usual quacks would fit all the criteria to be flagged to oblivion.
I don’t flag random projects, just ignore them (I know some people here like them, it’s not my thing but it is harmless). I downvote obnoxious comments about how something needs to be rewritten in rust in unrelated threads, though.
- rolph 5y agothere are times when a very good post contains discussion that quickly goes "lord of the flies" with controversy polarity and off topicality. this is a case where i would flag the post rather than spend hours flagging comments, that would result in jail time if said IRL.
