@williampietri

If you don't mind me butting in, I'd be curious if this is a problem from Fosstodon in particular.

I had heard that it was, but never saw evidence of it myself. (I know that doesn't mean that it doesn't happen)

@murph @[email protected] Fosstodon used to have that reputation, but it has settled down somewhat. Perhaps it’s being moderated better, or perhaps the worst reply guys have moved elsewhere.

I find the most egregious reply-guying these days comes from social.tchncs.de.
