At heart, it might not be a big problem.
But the optics aren't great.
And the response to the criticism reads like Pi's social media person is trying to take them down from the inside.
Being that toxic to fans and customers on social media is - I'll put this bluntly - stupid. It's unprofessional and very, very off-putting.
- danjoredd 4y agoYeah I missed the comments until I saw the archive. For some reason they aren't loading on the actual Mastadon page. I agree, its pretty unprofessional of them. Never been a fan of the "edgy corporation social media" fad and I hope it dies soon.
- hackish 4y agoIt seems like the server may be feeling the effects of the HN front page but it was already down with only two comments. There was a new breed of ActivityPub-amplified DDoS attack a week or two back on other Mastodon instances, so perhaps we're seeing more of the same.
- pbronez 4y agoyeah the snarky responses aren't great. Maybe a better play would be to let the responses roll, then do a blog post discussing the use of technology in law enforcement. They let the haters get under their skin and provoke an aggressive response... take the bait and you lose.
