Haters, assemble!!!
Jokes aside, I want to know what drives you to inform the rest of a website, chat, forum, or thread, that you don’t like/enjoy/want/do something.
I wanna hear what your impetus is.
Is the act cathartic? Do you have a personal, negative experience with the thing you’re complaining about? Is the impulse automatic or do you think about it every time?
The question is only as serious as you make it, but I’m curious all the same.
I believe I have some kind of teacher syndrome.
If I know something I think it’s good to share my thoughts about it to other people with the objective of creating a debate which could lead to get more information and a better conclusion for both of the parties.
I must admit sometimes I just enjoy trolling and mocking dumb people, but usually I like to help other people.
I think you’re over thinking it, frankly. In an ordinary discourse, sometimes ‘negative’ points will arise, and if you aren’t specifically averse to addressing such points then there’s no specific reason to avoid it.
Essentially, there are a great many people who don’t even consider such issues the same way that you do.
This needs to be pinned as part of the mod rules. Criticism is not personal attack but the idea that it is infests Lemmy to its detriment
If someone is asking for opinions or there’s a general discussion then surely negative opinions are just as valid as positive ones
If I hate something I see online I will say it and nobody should stop me. That’s it. There’s no science behind it.
Probably mostly to warn others. Sometimes to point out information I believe is wrong. Mostly I’m trying to keep the ship on course.
Just realize that crossing the line is when you become pedantic. No one likes that, especially when it’s obvious what someone meant. Took me a while to realize that and then stop.
