This is what I'd call the "enabler" archetype that gets unhappy about friction (rightfully!) but takes some.. uh.. mental shortcuts when it comes to tracing back the source of it.
I'm sorry man. The problem is that this exact described dynamic (see also the other reply by me which you seem to have conveniently missed), is that it affects _all_ internet spaces and makes them utterly miserable.
I agree though that this meta stuff doesn't exactly improve SNR, and I am open for better solutions. But those need to actually solve the problem, instead of just silencing the immune response.

- hypfer 2mo agoDon't take this as dismissive or a dunk or anything like that, but maybe an LLM can help with unpacking? At least I know that they understand my writing and that they can help me understand other writing I don't. I can assure you that there is a point. Whether it is worth bothering is of course your decision. I'd wager probably not, but I guess that depends. No hard feelings either way.
