How Many Muted Users Do You Have? \ stacker news ~meta

@k00b @ek Any chance an easter egg could be added for quality downzapping? I'm pretty sure I've benefitted a great deal from this amazing service, as I'm sure are many stackers who were spared my downzapped posts. Maybe the cattle prod?? or electric fence?

i always thought i would never waste zaps on downzapping, but a sheriffs badge could do convince me

A ton, makes SN👌

62 sats \ 0 replies \ @yfaming 16 Jan

zero. SN still doesn’t have enough posts or users to generate much noise. Keep it up, k00b!

60 sats \ 5 replies \ @Satosora 15 Jan

I have zero. I like getting the full SN experience. I have been considering opening the wild west mode...just havent yet. I dont know if I want that, especially if I use SN at work occasionally.

Philosophically speaking, wouldn't the full experience include using the mute feature?

69 sats \ 2 replies \ @Satosora 15 Jan

But if you mute someone, when they comment about something, you wouldnt be able to see it. Especially if they comment about something that you are interested in, wouldnt that be a shame to not see it? I think it is better just to ignore them.

And what if you miss a post about something you might be interested in because you were too busy scrolling through slop?

50 sats \ 0 replies \ @Satosora 16 Jan

There is too much here. By now, I know many of the users here on SN. I am able to tell which are making good posts, and which arent. But there will always be some that slip by. Its life.

I have at least a dozen

I have deemed these people to have nothing useful to say. But worse, listening to them makes one more ignorant

I know more than a few people including Darth and carlos fandango have muted me because they don't like what I say which is too bad because they are bitches who can't handle the truth

No muted users but I’ve muted about 30-40% of territories

63 sats \ 0 replies \ @random_ 15 Jan

45 and they are all highly regarded.

48 sats \ 0 replies \ @grayruby 15 Jan

Very few actual users. Tons of bots

41 sats \ 0 replies \ @NovaRift 16 Jan

I have 0, and it will probably remain 0; I won't mute anyone.

36 sats \ 14 replies \ @Undisciplined 15 Jan

Just one. I make sure to give people plenty of rope.

Thanks for not mentioning my user name.

By the way, how did you see this post anyway?

42 sats \ 1 reply \ @Undisciplined 15 Jan

Ha! No, you're pretty comfortably not the worst account on SN.

You know, a fake fight would be fun.

Back in the day one of my more creative co-workers made two twitter accounts. One was basically quoting stuff I said in the office(without my knowledge mind you). The other was like the opposite of me.

She was so a lot of fun to work with.

I so desperately want to know who it is.

It is a seriously uninteresting account. I mentioned to @Car on our podcast that I'm pretty sure it's just a CCP chatbot.

It makes stupid comments, but in a way that I feel compelled to respond, which always descends into the same tedious conversation as the previous dozen times.

I muted it because it's always the same conversation, which gave me high certainty that I wouldn't miss anything by muting it. If the dumb frustrating conversations were different from each other, I would have allowed it to continue.

I respect your principles even more now. After @siggy47's original post, I went and read a couple of posts from my mutes, and one in particular made me want to barf and then go find a tire iron.

It could be an opportunity for self-growth to leave that shit visible, but then, I've got so many opportunities for that already.
