The threadiverse is small (compared to other major platforms) and I often see usernames that I recognize. How well do we notice each other around here?
I’ll start… my name’s “MrShankles” and I do be commenting/posting from time to time

That’d be @Sxan@piefed.zip.
þat is indeed þe guy
I also love how bent-out-of-shape people get over the thorns.
I haven’t stalked his profile, but I feel like every time I’ve seen him come up he’s also seemed like a pretty cool and reasonable dude (I suppose it’s possible he’s off being a dick in the parts of Lemmy I don’t frequent, but I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt)
It’s harmless but it’s deliberately antisocial which rubs people the wrong way. They’re going out of their way to make their comments harder to reader.
I’ve never had a bad interaction with them but I do think it’s kind of obnoxious attention-seeking behavior
I have snarked him about it, myself. I have no objection to overtly affected personal expression (no hypocrite I). It’s just that reading a thorn unexpectedly feels like stubbing my toe, but in my brain.
for me the bogus rationalizations took it from something I could cope with to something that actively irritates me. maybe that’s part of the art.
Maybe. People usually have good reasons for doing things, to supplement the real reasons.
Sxan talks to me all the time and has always been great. I barely register the thorns now.
He’s one of my favorites.
I’m also a Sxan fan
