that can happen, but it’s not a gender thing. it’s a person thing. it’s a type of passive-aggressive trap. also, the tone is important. “have fun” should usually mean “have fun”.

Funny@sh.itjust.works•There are two outlooks inside youEnglish
1·1 month agoI think that’s because MS is trying to rebrand the shiity “Mail” app to “Outlook” in order to trick ppl into using it. There was a memo from our IT about it a few weeks ago. The Mail app lacks some features and stability yet. It can’t fully replace Outlook, but you know MS. They like to mess with users.

that depends on what you think is honest. maybe the ppl think repeating this discussion again is boring and they dislike it. don’t take it personally. you are not your content.
btw mastodon and bluesky don’t have downvotes. i think ppl who are here instead on those, decided this way is better. i for one left mastodon in favor of lemmy.
“only upvotes” don’t help as much, because you get a gap where ppl don’t like it. you can only use ppl who like it to sort, which may be much less than ppl who dislike it.
also, once downvoted from many ppl, fewer ppl see the content and it gets less downvotes.
actually downvotes give less “power to aasholes”, because otherwise ppl can post their evil shit like on xitter and they and the algorithm assume silence=agreement, even though agreeing takes only one tap while disagreeing requires writing a comment. this emboldens the “assholes”. they get little to no feedback ppl don’t like it. on top of it, there are ways/algos to sort by number of comments. so if ppl actually dislike it so much to write a comment, it pushes the bad post up on these rankings, shoving the horrible stuff in even more ppls faces.

Memes@sopuli.xyz•You earned some more dislikesEnglish
26·3 months agodon’t forget that downvotes mostly help with sorting. they don’t mean “this is wrong”. they mean the reader didn’t like it and it should be sorted further down or even start collapsed. it can just be a highly unpopular or disgusting truth ppl want to swipe under the rug. it can also be totally irrelevant or link/quote sites ppl don’t like and want to reduce traffic to or be forgotten (reddit, xitter, fb come to mind)
it’s just a quick feedback that can help the community.

Also, chartering or piloting your own small plane should bypass that, often.
