Fairly different hivemind here, I think. Still annoying at times but for different reasons. Individuals seem more likely to engage on a topic though. Maybe without instantly thinking you’re their enemy.

“hivemind” is such a stupid bullshit concept. the only people who use it just don’t like being disagreed with. if you use the term “hivemind” you might as well be a reddit conservative

I don’t think hivemind is a bullshit concept. It’s another word for gregarian behavior. The observed dominance of a single point of view, amplified by the underlying system of upvotes that brings a visibility bias to already popular points of view.

Isn’t that what we call the hivemind ?
