spam and shitposts according to who? according to me?
LOL
i hope you say hell no just as the same as i would say hell no about someone elese choosing for me.
I do understand there is a reason for the flag, but misuse of it is wrong in my opinion and we all have a mute, flags should not be used for subjective reasons.
But like you said its all oppinions.
It just how whatsup and i interact, its all in fun and we both often agree to disagree.
also i love spam and shitposting, send it all my way!!!!!
:D
It's just sometimes I wanna read something a little more serious, and I guess flagging keeps those pesky shitposters in their place and away from clogging up my screen.
Kinda like how high property taxes and arbitrary zoning helps keep the riffraff out of my artificially pristine neighbourhood!
thats what a mute button is for, other wise your trying to protect others from stuff they dont want to be protected from because you want to flag something you subjectivly dont like.
So by your own logic it ok for me to call all your posts and comments shitposts and flag them all?
IDK i guess i just look at it differntly, if something bothers me so much i cant handle seeing it ill mute it, no point for me to flag it because other people might be enjoying it and i dont think i have the right to choose what others can and cant see on steemit.
I was being just s teeny tiny bit sarcastic what with the nimby-metaphor and all.
Lol, couldn't you tell?
I personally ignore what I don't like. I don't believe I've flagged... maybe once...
The thing about flagging is it can sort hamfisredly counteract up voting if for some reason you want to hit the dislike button.
True spam is not such an issue because I believe the network limits your bandwidth based on your steak, so things like floods and DDOS is very very hard to pull off.
Dan Larimer did an interview on Ivan on Tech's YouTube podcast that's very interesting and it talks about some of the technical aspects of this.
:D
It's all an opinion :p
But without flagging then how are you supposed to reduce the impact of spam and shitposts?
