yes. because "no fun allowed" is not very attractive.

  It is to a certain kind of personality. Hacker News is very much "no fun allowed" and people here seem like it.

    yes exactly. thats why hackernews is niche.

    In a recent post about todo apps almost all the comments use plain text. Hacker News is niche and tiny.

  What is it you'd like to be posting that you think you aren't allowed to?
• Sohcahtoa82 1y ago
  I see plenty of "fun" on Blue Sky. What "fun" is not allowed? Be explicit.

    Try posting anything about AI or LLMs. You will be inundated with people deriding you for even looking at it. The only accepted opinion on bsky is "ai bad, mkay". The doomerism is suffocating.

      People disagreeing with you is not the same as something not being allowed.
      • Sammi 1y ago
        I haven't posted anything about ai on bsky. There are overwhelmingly many negative comments on any post on bsky that does discuss ai. There's so much "correct think" like that on bsky. No fun allowed. Only "correct" opinions.
        • Sohcahtoa82 1y ago
          Again, just because someone's opinions go against the hive mind bsky doesn't mean it's not allowed. Will an account get suspended/banned because of their views on AI? No. Therefore, still allowed.

            Not surprised that someone who loves the sycophant machine thinks that someone disagreeing with them means they’re being oppressed
