Since a lot of new people have come on I've noticed a rise in people trying to start arguments. It's as if they carried the toxicity from wherever they came from along with them.

So this is your reminder that you DO NOT HAVE TO ENGAGE with people who are here just to start fights.

Mute them. Block them. Do whatever you have to do to take care of your mental health.

They aren't worthy of your time.

Let's keep Mastodon and the rest of the Fedi a "social" network and not a "toxic" network.

@Mrfunkedude I've seen this too. I just ignore them and move on with my day. Sooner or later they will realize that there is no algo to game by getting engagement. This is like the real world, if you are sh*tty to people you talk to, they will avoid you and stop listening
