Controversy drives engagement

Exhibit A: All of Lemmy. Seriously, this entire place, especially this community it just controversy and outrage. It's so boring.

You don’t have to use this site

Thanks, I'm considering not. People here are very unwelcoming and elitist. Even more so than reddit, which is impressive.

I'm honestly getting the same feeling. Some posts, the comments will be fairly normal. Posts like this one, though, are when the entitled shits start popping out their heads and and going "ackshually" about how mods work, and how the company is doing this on purpose just to spite them playing with mods.

Like, no dip shit, the company isn't doing this on purpose just to spite you. They've already had this planned and have been working on it for some time, they're not just gonna stop their work if the modders are okay with it.
