The issue is just for 1 on 1 phone calls, meetings seem to work fine.

I sync OneDrive to my Synology as well, another reason I’m okay with the “double” traffic is that my and my wife’s photos from our smartphones immediately get backed up to our Synology, even when we’re away from home.

I’ve heard conservatives claim that many liberals actually want forced abortions, because it’s really about eugenics and population control.

This is the only reason I haven’t pushed my team to switch. I’m worried too many of them will be OP.

Who decided that’s how downvoting should be used? There is no official rulebook (especially on the fediverse), and etiquette is decided as a group, but there isn’t clear consensus on this.

The technical function of the downvote is to push the comment down far enough that people won’t see it. And so people will continue to use it as a way to communicate that they do not approve of the comment. And telling people to stop downvoting comments they don’t like is trying to enforce a rule they never agreed to.

I get your point is to have a neutral 3rd party help oversee the elections, but having the UN do it would be one of the fastest ways to spark a civil war. A lot of Trump supporters very much believe the UN is one of the key players trying to bring the new world order.

Yeah, but I didn’t expect it be nearly every single comment.

I thought you were just kidding, but then I read his post history.

Dog whistle literally just means coded language that an ordinary observer might not notice, but can be used to subtly identify other like-minded individuals.

Not all dog whistles are necessarily bad (depending on perspective). I’m an ex-mormon, and one dog whistle is a tapir. Without more information, it is too subtle to really know for certain whether I just like tapirs, or that I’m actually ex-mormon. But eventually, two ex-mormons might see enough signals to finally confide in one another.

A lot of the language you used is innocuous enough, and I didn’t feel like it was at the level @hoodatninja claimed, but it definitely had a “Reddit was becoming too woke” vibe to it, without actually coming out and outright saying it, aka, a dog whistle.
