  • When in comes to my own posts and comments, my trust in vague negative reactions is long gone.

    Some things that made me more suspicious of Lemmy users:

    • Most criticism of one thing was vague and often mentioned my mental health. And the only non-vague comment was targeted at the involved Catholic beliefs/values and my unusual sense of humor.
    • I banned someone for 1 day for saying “So, am I right in assuming that OP has untreated schizophrenia? Wtf is this word vomit?” and someone described this as “banned a guy because he said you write poorly” which is a very weird interpretation. I obviously would not have gived a ban if the comment just said “you write poorly”.

    For me, taking online feedback less seriously was a big part of growing up.


















    • marriage is awesome enough to warrant active effort in dating if one is called to marriage, but not at all costs
    • standards can be good, even if it means staying single
    • no shame or moral inferiority in being single, regardless of age
    • marriage almost always should be with another catholic
    • no premarital sex or cohabitation
    • dating is for finding future spouse, but there’s not too much rush in determining whether or not someone is that future spouse
    • relatively wide variety in how long a couple dates before deciding to marry
    • normal to date in high school, but some people are against it, and some actively encourage it
