(one last one last point)
Another thing I want y'all to know - the reason I've been boosting my replies to annoying folks lately?
It's to try and give a signal to those folks *and others* that I find that behavior unacceptable.
That is something this platform desperately needs - like it or not, some of the features of other platforms allow the crowd to signal what's good and bad. That is its own form of moderation. Like giving digital side-eye.
Its absence here isn't all good.
