    It’s a little disconcerting when I post stuff and people (I assume) down vote it because they can’t be bothered to read past the headline.

    I posted a video to an almost dead Tron community with Joseph Kosinski talking about Tron Legacy being released in 4K.

    But, again, I assume, because the video thumbnail and description was all about Top Gun Maverick…⬇️👇⬇️👇⬇️

      I chose my current instance because they disable downvotes for this reason. At least it’s one less vector of negativity

        You say that, but I recently had a comment deleted and got banned from a community on that instance. I wasn’t being a jerk or anything. The mod was power tripping.

          Sorry to hear, there are power tripping mods everywhere.

          You can always try to escalate to the admins (even though sometimes they don’t want to interfere with communities)

            As much as it did and does bother me, it’s probably not worth the effort. That community probably isn’t worth my time.
