We both know that my point is that you’re on lemmy visiting the exact instance you’re complaining about. Regardless of your motives, you’re giving them traffic, and even worse (by your logic, anyway) you’re letting them count you as an active user. You might not be from lemmy.world, but these comments originate from & live here.

Even then, people seeing your downvoted comment here will not make people leave. People here are well aware that this is federated and that there are multiple instances (except, in your case, you seem to have forgotten that you could just stay on lemmy.ml communities, or block lemmy.world). They aren’t going to see your judgmental, main character syndrome comments and suddenly change their tune.

I also find it interesting that nothing in your first comment said anything that could let other users know that there are other options. I can’t find anything so noble as to warn other users about anything in it… almost like it wasn’t your original motivation.

Maybe blocking the instance is a better, healthier option for you?
