    Have they ever even posted anything? I’ve only seen comments from them, and never any actual posts.

    They are more than welcome to post what they want to see instead of trying to tell others what not to post. I post what I find interesting; they can do the same. I encourage that - the more posts and activity, the better.

      Nope. Looks like he’s one of those that prefers to snipe from the sidelines rather than do any heavy lifting.

      Going back to your mention of the toxicity of Reddit, I feel like that was one of dynamics that tanked the quality of the site over time - millions of anonymous commenters vs. the posters that were actually providing content created a pretty negative space for those of us that like to share new ideas.

      I agree with you that encouraging posters should be the focus of the Fediverse. This place is setup to be a publishers wonderland, and if you’re just using it to complain about what others contribute, you’re missing the entire point of the platform. If he really wants to nitpick which posts should and shouldn’t appear in his feed, he needs plug back into the Reddit hivemind and leave the Fediverse in peace.
