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.

@danhon i think it's fine to spell it out for people who may not get it.

it would be more efficient to have reply-sticker-generator dot org

but i'm sure i have, like, actual work to do

idk, seems like people want better ways / more options to manage replies

@danhon I love mastodon, but also I turned off notifications from people I don't follow a long time ago and it made me love mastodon a lot more. Even more granularity/control over this kind of thing would be amazing.

mhoye

@danhon You're doing the lord's work here sir.

@danhon I'm curious to find a German word for "mansplaining".

Maybe “Männerkonzeptsrückerklärung”

@janl what do you think?

Jens Scholz ⍟ replied to Thomas

@thomasfuchs @danhon @janl it's mansplainen in German. We use the same expression. The sentence in German should read
"antworten Sie nicht, um mir meinen eigenen Beitrag zu mansplainen."

@jensscholz @danhon @janl well yeah, but I feel like there should be a over-the-top German word for this, because reasons

@thomasfuchs @jensscholz @danhon @janl The French won so hard with “Mecspliquer“ the Germans didn’t bother playing.

@thomasfuchs @jensscholz @danhon @janl if it doesn't have to be one word I'd say "väterlich belehren"

@danhon These are wonderful. What did you use to make them?

@luis_in_brief -- I would also love to be able to use these in a client via a dedicated button.

@danhon The french translation is off.
May I suggest this, instead?

"Ne pas répondre pour 'mecspliquer' mon propre message."

@danhon It should be “Eine Sache, die mir gefällt”

@danhon Never have I thought that social media should offer a bumper bar more

Iwillyeah

@danhon

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 similar to "you don't have this problem" but possibly useful would be "DO NOT REPLY TO TELL ME TO RTFM [WITHOUT INCLUDING A SPECIFIC, RELEVANT, AND HELPFUL CITATION]"

Sara Joy :happy_pepper:

@danhon I was gonna say, the blue one says 'no reply necessary' but maybe we also need a simple DO NOT REPLY.
