I recently tried posting a link to an anti-annexation protest event I created, however EhNow (similar to twitter), the site I used to create the event, apparently won't let you view it without being a registered user, which I did not realize. Seems I inadvertently did the most offensive and suspicious thing anyone has ever done, ever, by posting such a link. I was wrong to assume people knew what EhNow is, so here's a video about it.

Oh my god, give it a fucking rest!

You posted a link that required a login, and people said "I'm not signing up for a social media account just to read a single article." Your response was to insult everyone and tell them that they signed up for lemmy so they should have no problem with EhNow.

Quit acting so butthurt and grow up. You're doing a great job of making me avoid EhNow.

Yeah, 1000% I was put off by their behaviour, more than anything else in the thread. The URL not matching was absolutely questionable, and if OP had said "whoops, typo" or even just "huh, weird" I might've accepted it, but instead they acted like they got caught splicing a speedrun world record, high and mighty and like it was offensive that people wouldn't just click any link a stranger sent them. They were rude in nearly every comment on the whole post.

The whole thing put me off, and that's when I downvoted the whole thing as a potential phishing scam and silently left the thread.

Please stop any more of your tears and I'll drown!
