    It’s a woman, guys. Jesus. I see the reddit transplants still won’t read or watch a 30 sec news clip.

      Oh yeah, tell me about it. I post a lot of articles in various communities, so I probably see more comments that the average user. I cannot overstate how annoying it is to open my inbox to find a deluge of comments from people asking things that are explained within the first sentence or two of an article. Or as in this case, getting the basic facts incorrect because they only read the headline. Lemmy isn’t any different than reddit in that regard.

      Being a “reddit transplant” who took the time to understand what was going on, I think your joke is overplayed and weirdly elitist. Imagine being prideful of not having found Lemmy through Reddit, or whatever it is you’re trying to imply?? lol

      Let’s not pretend that Lemmy is a bastion of intellectuals, and that it’s just former Redditors that are the problem…

      The place where people read the headline and make a bunch of assumptions is called “the whole ass universe”, not reddit. Besides, people who clicked on the article before posting only wanted to fact-check their suspicions because they’re insecure about looking stupid.
