You can usually tell it’s fake when the characters feel engineered to generate maximum outrage or sympathy.

It’s possible you replied, but I only ever saw these posts when they would get enough traction to appear in r/all—so usually my comments came pretty late and never got more than a handful of votes. The few times OP did reply it was nonspecific stuff like “Fine, don’t believe me.”

I’d check but all my reddit comments are gone now.

This article is such garbage clickbait, but of course the Lemmy audience eats it up because it validates their anti-facebook circlejerk.

It seems like a more extreme version of the weird elitism around social media that was always present on Reddit.

People who use Twitter have been desperate for an alternative. Surprised it took one of the big corps this long to throw their hat in the ring, tbh.

Found this out the hard way 🤦‍♂️
