@thomasfuchs @danhon Especially given how that description seems much more quintessentially British! Started putting these in a Flickr album: https://www.flickr.com/photos/danhon/albums/72177720314761105 DO NOT REPLY WITH A SUGGESTION FOR ME TO UPLOAD THEM SOMEWHERE FOSS 5. Do not reply to tell me to use open source software Full album at https://www.flickr.com/photos/danhon/albums/72177720314761105 @danhon (switching immediately to the first client that offers these as a macro with proper alt-text) @danhon "Do not reply to tell me the problem is capitalism." @danhon How open "OPEN THIS POST ON MY INSTANCE TO SEE ALL REPLIES BEFORE ADDING YOURS"? Most of these are more specific versions of the “This is an observation / do not attempt to help / no reply necessary" first, general one, it seems. it would be more efficient to have reply-sticker-generator dot org but i'm sure i have, like, actual work to do @thomasfuchs @danhon @janl it's mansplainen in German. We use the same expression. The sentence in German should read @jensscholz @danhon @janl well yeah, but I feel like there should be a over-the-top German word for this, because reasons Do not reply to make this post about something other than what I have said it is about. Do not reply with a conspiracy theory seeking to explain bias as something other than bias. Pithy, they ain't, but the amount of replies I see on other people's posts that need this said to them does my head in. (I never post things interesting enough myself to get reply guys✌️) @danhon I was gonna say, the blue one says 'no reply necessary' but maybe we also need a simple DO NOT REPLY. @danhon I totally agree of the need of this one in some context, but can you make the reverse one too 🤔 "Do not reply to tell me to use paid / proprietary software" Because in some case you simply cannot be approved for an external soft that might fit the need perfectly but can't be billed or approved if not fully auditable @danhon i feel like we could use a "do not reply doing the exact offensive thing I am objecting to, except as a "joke" @danhon is it ok if I put these on a little cookie-less website with ready-to-copy alt text? |
@danhon @Meyerweb I love how the German is always awkward and wants an extra line
