The Ability To Mute A Post/Thread

Everything about Lemmy; bugs, gripes, praises, and advocacy.
For discussion about the lemmy.ml instance, go to !meta@lemmy.ml.
I’ll be real this is a “if you can’t take the heat stay out of the kitchen” kinda thing
Heat is fine. But that's like saying you have to lose your car every time your restaurant has a fire.
That’s… actually a pretty good analogy. I see your point, especially since the ability to mute a thread doesn’t subtract from anybody else’s experience
@TexMexBazooka @sabreW4K3 I know you mean well, but it's ableist and exclusionary to say that we should not be using social media if we can't "handle the heat."
