Flagged or downvoted? Downvoting stuff is fine; it's actually a bit more nuanced as I mentioned in my previous post because if you spend all your life in a "circlejerk" then that's perhaps a bit of an issue. That's been a concern with e.g. "The filter bubble" and things like "FOX News media bubble" and stuff. But none of that applies to e.g. Lobsters, so I didn't bother mentioning it.
Flagging would be a horrible abuse of the flag feature though.
- hutzlibu 3y agoSee the reply from dang above, it was apparently a simple word filter in action, meaning "circlej**" is not allowed to say.
- hutzlibu 3y agoFlagged, like this post of yours was just now. (until I vouched) I see it happen and it disturbs me as well. The other variant would be, you are shadowbanned? But it doesn't seem like it.
