My fucking organization refuses to support anything but Chrome. I hate it so much.
Brave user here. Never looked back.
I think the Brave CEO recently said some Trumpy shit (in case you're at all curious for the downvoting).
I wish more people were like you. Not everyone can keep up with everyone's beefs (this one not so much) but it really grinds my gears when I see seemingly polite, on topic, engaging or contributing comments with no replies but still geyting down voted. Especially on a forum as thirsty as Lemmy users are for more user involvement.
It makes me think there are too many people in the world conditioned to be preset to hate thst the fact a person doesn't know they're supposed to hate something is enough grounds to be shunned and hated on. Lol. It's cool to see someone jump in and say:Hey homie, we don't hate you we hate a person who is unrelated to the topic of the thread or the context of your comment but we do hate them enough to hate on you
Edit: the parenthesis comment was meant to imply hating Trump monkeys is glaringly obvious. My comment was about lemmy etiquette and wasn't about why or why not OP was getting downvoted.
It's gotta be some kind of sheep brain activation; crowd following behavior. It can be very annoying sometimes.
Sometimes you're just voicing a neutral opinion and it gets destroyed. And by neutral I mean it's not controversial or anything, like racism, it could just be something not exactly everyone would agree with.
I wish people would use the down vote as Reddit once intended it to mean: off topic and not contributing to the discussion, or perhaps rude, etc. Not "I don't agree with this". You should explain why you don't agree with something, or up vote a comment that already explains it.
