@iclavijos @Rataunderground venía a hacer un #replyguy de lo mismo. Yo he empezado un par de proyectos nuevos y los 2 han ido a Codeberg. Si tienes dudas sobre el uso de Git, simplemente avisa que será un placer ayudarte

Hab gerade etwas Zeit - und gerade gelernt, wie der Befüllungszustand von SBahnen ermittelt werden kann #LastRetröt . Möchte mir jemand vielleicht noch was Interessantes erklären? Jetzt ist Eure Chance! 😄 #unironisch #ReplyGuy #ErklärBär

@wolf Das ist eben das Problem: Die allermeisten Mastodon-Nutzer wissen annähernd nichts darüber, inwiefern Mastodon anders ist als 𝕏, und sie haben immer noch "Twitter on the brain". Aber funktioniert ja für sie.

Im Grunde müßte man Millionen Mastodon-Nutzer jeweils einzeln beim Patschehändchen nehmen, ihnen Mastodon ganz speziell und das Fediverse allgemein Stück für Stück erklären in einem Kurs, der zwei Wochen dauert oder so, und hinterher das vermittelte Wissen abfragen, ob sie das auch alles wirklich gelernt, behalten und verinnerlicht haben.

Aber geschätzt jeder vierte würde das empfinden als übergriffiges Reply Guying, Mansplaining und Fedisplaining. Als würden sie irgendwas falsch machen. (Tun sie, streiten sie aber vehement ab. Wenn, dann machen alle anderen es falsch.)

The Terrible Sea Lion (Wondermark - 2014)

Interesting discussion on the subject:

#SeaLion #ReplyGuy

Sealioning is the name given to a specific, pervasive form of aggressive and willfully intentional cluelessness, that masquerades as a sincere desire to understand.

A Sealion is someone who, when confronted with a fact that they don’t care to acknowledge, say, the persistence of systemic racism in America, will ask endlessly for “proof” and insist that it is the other person’s job to stop everything they are doing and address the issue to their satisfaction.

The purpose of Sealioning is never to actually learn or become more informed. The purpose is to interrogate. Much like actual interrogators, Sealions bombard their target with question after question, digging and digging until the target either says something stupid or is so pissed off that they react in the extreme. The other major reason why people hate Sealioning is because responding to it is a complete waste of time.

It's an insidious trap. Responding to questions asked reasonably is, of course, a natural thing for people to do. | like to do it myself; educating others is generally pretty entertaining, especially if they are receptive to learning. Dismissing those questions can appear condescending or rude, especially if you actually are condescending or rude.

Of course, these questions are not asked because the person asking them genuinely wants to know the answer. If they did, they would do their own digging based on your statements, and only ask for obscure or difficult- to-discover information. This is the “debate principle”. It is best explained thusly: When you go to a debate, you educate yourself on the topics at hand, and only request evidence when a claim is either quite outlandish or unflinchingly obscure.

No, these questions are asked to make a responder waste their time. It works, too; I've responded to Sealions before, answering all their questions and claims for evidence, only to be greeted by even more willful ignorance. It's a way to force people into responding to questions phrased neutrally but asked in bad faith.

The name “Sealioning” comes from a most splendid webcomic, “Wondermark”, by David Malki.

Sealions are just “asking nicely” but they are asking questions that have been asked and answered fully many times, and are unwilling to so much as open a new tab to look up the answer, nor will they recognize the validity of your sources, your experience or expertise no matter what you do. It is impossible to satisfy a Sealion.

Make no mistake.

Sealioning is a specific form of harassment. You may not explain their inquiry has already been address. You may not cite a source. You may not refer to a previous answer. You definitely may not ever point them to a link. You must spend all your time and energy responding as much as you can to every little details of every innocent, polite little question they ask. Sealioning isn't a sincere attempt at anything. It's a calculated technique to grind an opponent down.

Someone explain the parameters for the 'reply guy' label because I've seen it used to justify closed-mindedness more than any other reason. It seems (just my opinion) like it's used to describe anyone who replies in any way that isn't immediately agreeable or complimentary to the OP. Like, you do realize you're on a public forum, right? It's a place to put your thoughts out into the world and get feedback on them. Speaking of, I'd like some feedback on this post. 🤔

This morning on instagram, I watched a short video made by a Vietnamese woman explaining how tariffs (46% for Vietnam) would hurt her business.

The comments on her informative post were off the charts! It was as if every incel reply guy glanced at her Asian features and decided it was time to take her down.

It’s shameful that we have allowed such a noxious culture to spread far and wide.

You appear to be the only one who was aggrieved here, with your complaint about a perfectly normal English language idiom.

Going out and searching for things to be offended by is an unattractive quality.

>> I appreciate the note that [ @BruceMirken ] showed up in my tl, telling me how to write posts, then tried to overdog me when I pointed out I'd used spotty correctly; he's literally crying about the same behavior he was displaying.

There's a #ReplyGuy tag that people also misuse along with #Toodles ➡️ https://mstdn.social/@Npars01/113976614759233234

@JamesTDG @babe

What gave you the impression that either of us didn't know exactly what the problem with impossible gearsets was? She discussed the problem, and I even posted that image as a specific example of the problem that bugs me.

I assure you, I knew exactly what was wrong with those gears before I posted it.

Please Mastodon just let me pinch images to zoom in and out in the mobile web site.

Thank you for telling me what alt text is. I wouldn't know anything about it, except that I was designing and building CMS systems that supported it 25 years ago.
