MODERATORS
I know but sometimes you just need to make the obvious statement because people will attack you anyway.
That's stupid imo, and we should push back against that nonsense. I strongly oppose the format, "I agree with {majority opinion}, but {nuanced opinion}." Just lead with the nuanced opinion. Don't make me sift through this appeal to the majority nonsense every time.
I get why people do it, it's just a lot of noise just because people knee-jerk downvote. I wish Lemmy (or something else) would weight votes based on some kind of merit so we don't need to play that game.
Yeah I agree generally but for me it was more like this is very sensitive issue and if I say anything controversial I also have to make sure people don't' randomly think I'm fine with the death threats in general. I think this death threat stuff is nonsense, I got death threats just playing games, I see people complaining about it all the time, it just seems like a non issue and I don't know why devs even talk about it.
