A few examples include s*x questions on askreddit, “this” comments, nolife powermods, jokes being more frequent than actual answers

        As someone who is incredibly tone deaf in written conversation, please don’t get rid of the /s. It really does help

        I don’t agree, /s is immensely useful for neurodivergent people, some of which cannot recognize sarcasm at all.

        Also, really often something that is “obvious sarcasm” for you is a genuinely held belief by someone online. Nothing is too ridiculous for the internet

            Why should we exclude neurodiverse people from a space when it’s easy enough to make it accessible?

                No but they’re here (and we should be being as inclusive as possible if we want Lemmy to be successful), so it makes no sense to shut the doors on them just because a couple of people don’t like seeing /s .

                Do you active dislike neurodiverse people or you just prefer to surround you only with people you can relate to?

            Just because you don’t care about certain groups of people who are not actively damaging for the world, that doesn’t mean that they should be excluded from here.

        Sadly, I understand your point, but feel that I need to remind you of Poe’s Law. I think the /s is required because shit is all too real

      I was going to post that you’re lucky you included the /s, but I just realized we don’t have karma so it doesn’t matter anyways. Such a nice feeling…

        Fuck that /s If you’re unable to grasp context without it then just move on to a different discussion.
