Do you think it should be removed? Honestly sometimes as a mod I avoid doing that unless it’s spam or harmful because it seems like it’s just based on my opinion and I prefer leaving it to users’ votes
There is such clear anti-Apple sentiment on most conversations here, it’s frustrating to post and I tend to avoid the channel more now. Some will say it’s their opinion that Apple is now evil and these kinds of stories are needed to combat fanboy enthusiasm. But - The channel is /c/apple-enthusiast; so yeah, we should be allowed to be a bit fanboyish.
I used to mod number of channels on Reddit, but especially on the Volkswagen ID.3 and electric vehicles channels there are so many people calling VW a pack of Nazis that I had to put a zero-tolerance in place so we can have decent conversations.
You can say it’s free an Internet and people should be allowed to do whatever they want, but we’re all a bit older than that… Right? You don’t open the movie house and then let people come in and yell fire; you don’t open a shooting gallery and allow people come in and take shots at other people. We should have civil rules on civility here.
Just my own opinion.
Edit: …and I argued for civility and was downvoted. It’s like Reddit all over again.
Bullshit.
Hey mods - does anyone ever look at these garbage anger-engine posts?
Ya they’re pretty pathetic. I don’t give them much attention aside from being amused.
Probably lots of lowlifes just hoping for someone to really stick it to Apple and are sad that it’s not happening the way they hoped.
Shades of American politics, just in it to see the other guy get punched in the face and spit teeth.
