I know what the Creative Commons is but not this new thing or why it keeps popping up in comments on Lemmy

        Sometimes I respond, but quite often I block and move on.

        You look through my history in the last fiveish days, you’ll see an excessive amount of people attacking me for using the license/link. You can only block so much before admins really need to and should step in and ‘tend to their garden’, especially if its being done by astroturfers and it borderlines on harassment.

        Plus blocking here doesn’t keep them from seeing what you post and replying to it, only you seeing their replies. So I don’t consider it as actual blocking.

      Just for the heads up I support you guys.

      Thank you, its appreciated.

      Yeah all of this hate just feels unnecessary. I’m sorry that @onlinepersona@programming.dev and you are going through this.

      Its so, irrational, for a single link in a comment.

      I’m still of the thinking that its astroturfers trying to prevent licenses from being used (which if true, would REALLY like Lemmy.World admins to start handling the astroturfers). Either that, or its the non-‘touch grass’ anti-social crowd, which seem to rule here on Lemmy.

        Well I think you could do a few things.

        A) Talk to your admin about harassment and ask them to look into this when they can.

        B) Start posting in communities that have a higher intolerance to this kind of behaviour (I’m thinking Beehaw communities)

        C) Make a post on !anticorporate@lemmy.giftedmc.com and see if you can get even more people doing it.

        I’m actually thinking of adding these to my posts as well now just to see more people’s reactions. Do you know of a way to automatically add it to the end of your posts?

        Edit: grammar and spelling.

          Lemmy.World doesn’t have a signature field at the account level, so I copy/paste the signature in.

          This is the unformatted text that I’m copying/pasting …

          As far as other communities goes, they’re following me around, and using seven-day old accounts to harrass.

          At the end of the day, I’m going to keep doing what I’m doing. Its just a pain in the ass to open my inbox and see crap in there, is all. Wish the admins would step up.
