I get both arguments, but the first one would be like saying
"I don't tvink this is a fun read so I'm going to make everyone else watch low quality "memes".
More or less making a desicion for others that they shouldn't wamt to see this either by spamming.
The other argument would be a in good faith, and I get it. Ypu don't want this space to die. But this wasn't a threat to the space, it was an opportunity of community self-governance. One bad actor did bad stuff and people called them out for it. That actually makes the community stronger and more transparent.
Bad news isn't fun, but not knowing what's going on at all would be worse.
Yeah, I get the community and getting together over some common theme, but when the theme is not funny and completely pointless, that just feels like spam to me.
This is a real banger 🙏❤️
Should make for a spicy secion on wikipedias own history page, eh?
Lmao thanks for the advice buddy 🙏
Yeah, so? As I was saying, I'm doing my part :)
I think I've seen the corn ones as well. Wasn't a fan then either 😅

But personally I believe a lower volume of good quality content is better than a high volume of garbage.
Yeah, not with you on that one 😄

Isn't it ironic that people both tell me to just juse post filters AND explain bean memes as something to drown out topics they don't like?
Why don't the bean crowd just filter out the tesseract controversy with some simple keywords then?
Feels like double standards.
I agree filters is the right response to content you aren't interested in seeing. And I have set up these filters now.
I do NOT like the sentiment of posting garbage to "drown out topics you don't like". That sounds childish, spammy amd malicious.
Agreed 🙏
I mean I'm all for dumb fun, but I am having a hard time finding the fun in these pointless "memes".
A good shitpost can be really dumb, but still fun. It has some point, or irony, or whatever.
The bean-category of "memes" are more pointless than they are fun. Closer to spam than memes.
Not trying to rob anyone of their enjoyment though, but I don't enjoy it :)
what
Care to elaborate?
It might be more complicated than I understand it to make it sound good, but compared to a CD player setup it is simpler.
I think my point still stands :)
Yeah what I meant in my comment was that vinyl is so simple I can understand the full system from the record to the music reaching my ears.
Given enough time and resources I think I could build a really crap turntable + amp + speakers myself and explain every step of the way.
A CD player uses lasers, processors, DACs and a lot more that are way over my understanding.
The point being, low tech is nice. Keep it simple 😄
CDs are making a comeback already!
Albeit not as big as vinyl yet, but it might catch up given time!
A couple of months ago I overheard a couple guys in their early 20s who were happy for finding some specific CD in a local record store.
I don't agree with you that being hipster is the only good reason for it.
There are many benefits with physical and DRM-free media.
I just posted another comment on this post making my point though 😄
Yeah, I think you're right when it comes to quality alone. Especially with that last text.
To me, vinyl has the following qualities that I like:
I can probably come up with more reasons. These are not all unique to vinyl.
There are lots of downsides as well, like price, conveniance, dust, no streaming on the go and so on.
I still like my records though.
Not sure if I agree with you or not. I think technically you are right. But there is a lot more to it than pure quality and conveniance.
What?
If there are many instances of peoples rights being violated, what makes you think your rights will be respected when push comes to shove?
Why are you so determined to convince people Russia should not be held accountable?
This isnt the first time I see your name pop up saying this.
