@paninid @mmasnick @seachanger @Hey_Beth Speaking from experience, yes, they can be mean and cruel

One of the worst experiences I ever had on social media was when I said that I have a legitimate use case for quote posts on Mastodon

On top of the harassment, the dog piling, and the ableism, I received a strike from my instance because, and I quote, "if you don't like Mastodon, you don't have to use it”. I wasn't saying I don't like Mastodon, I was saying quote posts would be useful for me.
