No. It’s fine. Go start a fight with an internet stranger over fanmade flash games.
You would never know I’m baiting you. I’m a master baiter.
No, just the hook. Nothing to philosophise over here.
What is, for the purposes of answering this question, bait? Is bait any piece of media that begs a response? Can bait be sincere? Is bait exclusively negative or are negativity and positivity even relevant to the determination of what is or isn’t bait? Amongst the enumerable questions one can ask, which ones provide the quickest route to elucidation? I’d guess 4 and 701.
I’ve been having a hard time not engaging with my coworkers on meaningless debates. Recently I’ve been trying to take a deep breath and focus on something else.
I don’t know why anyone would bait on Lemmy. There’s not really an incentive to do so.
When it comes to getting the attention of others, there’s always an incentive.
I’ve found myself scrolling through stories or reels or whatever a particular platform calls it and coming across something even slightly polarizing and heading right for the comments looking for opinions I find stupid or incorrect and then-
realizing I’m falling for the algorithm, deleting my half written comment and moving on.
Nah it’s just a hook, go for it champ
