Literally, ppl always try to tell me that we have to "defend the community" but this is actively making it worse

Leaving a snarky comment and downvoting is better than just letting it sit there imo

I’ve seen a lot of posts get deleted almost immediately, normally on someone says “just report for ____”. almost no one reports without prompting

and idk if this is correlation not causation, but posts with lots of comments tend to stay up while posts with fewer comments go down more easily. engaging with those posts both gives them what they want and protects them from consequences…
