From my experience with people that are very pro Android vs the pro iOS crowd, it’s just that they’re trying to justify their own choice by uplifting the OS they chose and sometimes tend to focus only on the negatives of the other OS. The same can be said for the various desktop OS crowds.

I’ve used both Android and iOS, as well as Windows and MacOS (and intend to try Linux at some point) over the years and I never thought one was generally better than the other. All these OSs have different target users and that’s ok. Just because you’re not the target user for OS A, doesn’t mean that OS B is objectively the best OS for everyone. It’s just the best OS for you. And why people feel the need to bash other people’s choices or even make fun of them for it is beyond me.

I saw them in a store recently and couldn’t resist buying it for that very reason. Is it actually useful or nice to write with? No. Do I regret buying it? Hell no.

If you wouldn’t mind, what makes you come back to that kind of content? I went to eyeblech once, out of some kind of morbid curiosity (and not really knowing what it was), but one video in particular is now permanently etched onto my retinas and I really wish I could unsee it. I’ve never been back there. A similar video that probably came from watchpeopledie is also still living in my brain. Also wish I could forget that one.

So yeah, I sort of understand listening to (true) horror stories, true crime and all that, but I struggle to understand why you’d want to watch someone die as a pastime. Would love to hear your perspective on this.

And to answer your question: yes, while I would not want to see that kind of content, it’ll probably get posted anyway and then it’d be better if it were hosted somewhere in a controlled manner on a special instance or something like that, so random people don’t accidentally bump into it. That particular instance should expect that other instances will defederate from them however. If only to make sure that the mods and admins don’t manually have to weed that out of their own instances.
