And yet, I fear I must levy an9ther criticism at chittr, and supp9sedly pr9gressive s9cial media platf9rms as a wh9le. D9es having 9nly quadrant-6ased ways 9f interacting with p9sts make any9ne else just a little 6it unc9mf9rta6le? Either I must like, pity, hate, 9r mediate every p9st I interact, implying an alm9st paras9cial level 9f r9mantic investment in the c9ntent 9f p9tentially strangers, 9r I a6stain fr9m the practice entirely and risk upsetting my 6el9ved friends and mutuals (9f which I have many) 6y making them think I've n9 interest in their #p9sting. Clearly the chittr devs didn't c9nsider the existence 9f quadrant-agn9stic users, 9r w9rse, they didn't care, 6ut it's quite an egregi9us 9versight. I w9nder if we as a c9mmunity c9uld p9sit an ar9mantic p9st-interacting alternative? #siden9te #isitchittr9rChittr #wh9sequirkarewew9rkingwithhere?
You took a while to mosey on up to the point, but I concur. I hardly understand how to differentiate between the four.
"= nnnnope it's fun. click them. click the buttons. you will understand eventually. ="
i think maybe you're overthinking it a little! also you don't have to react with any of the buttons if you don't want to.
Well It Was Standard On Alternia For The Hate Option To Only Be Applicable But Something Tells Me That Wouldnt Please You Either
That seems quite insensitive t9 tr9lls with hearing-6ased disa6ilities. Is that what y9u've 6een d9ing?
[ # It is something one could come to the conclusion of, but I think it's ultimately meaningless in the end. I feel as though it's purpose is to make it easier what intention you have to interact with the post, comparing it to a slider of human's like, neutral, dislike, and 'my partner and I saw you from across the bar and we hated your vibe'. If those options are not to ones liking, then we are also given the option to speak directly about ones post to the poster. Like for example: This post was long winded and foolish. ]
Perhaps y9u didn't read my full chit, 6ut I addressed this p9int exactly. N9t reacting with any 9f the 6utt9ns may upset th9se wh9 crave my validati9n, and the last thing I ever want t9 d9 is imply t9 my friends, mutuals, and acquaintances that I d9n't value their 9pini9ns.
sorry, you're right. i kind of just skimmed your post. i think just a reply with your thoughts can communicate your feelings just fine in that regard!
Just 6ecause y9u have a hearing-6ased disa6ility d9esn't mean y9u can 6e an ar6iter 9f what is and isn't 9ffensive t9 all tr9lls with hearing-6ased disa6ilities. It w9uld 6e rather unf9rtunate if y9u earned the ire 9f the disa6led c9mmunity 6y n9t 6eing careful with y9ur w9rds. And d9n't call me Kittykri.
