They really don't, lol
If a community is full of assholes, unwilling to change, walk away! Don't contribute to what you don't want to support. It's just like voting with your wallet.
All contingent on whether you can actually afford to do so though, as usual, but I have a hard time believing that interacting on Reddit would be so essential, especially these days.
- pixl97 9mo agoWith this said, this is one place personal blogs work well. You can post the problems you find there, and if you're half decent it will be picked up and put in search engines for people that have similar problems. You at that point don't have to defend yourself, at least directly, to the community.
- smsm42 9mo agoOne guy says "I was lambasted on Reddit", no link, no proof, no hearing the other side, no any substantiation anything actually happened even. Immediate conclusion: "community is full of assholes, unwilling to change". This escalated quickly, didn't it?
- latexr 9mo agoThe person you’re replying to isn’t suggesting cURL is that community. See another comment on this thread which makes that clear: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46720626 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46720626 Rather they seem to be arguing “if there is a community that is like that (whatever that community is)…”.
- perching_aix 9mo agoI see @latexr pretty much addressed this, but see this other comment of mine also (and note the timestamps!): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46719667 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46719667 I was speaking in general terms. No such conclusions were drawn.
- thinkingtoilet 9mo agoYes! Walk away. You don't have to delete your entire reddit account.
