Strange, no idea what's going on. Could be spam or technical issue with the users meaning to comment on another post.
@ruud@lemmy.world could maybe investigate?
Looks like there's an issue with posts >2k characters that the admin is aware of: https://lemmy.world/comment/76346
To me, this is like Richard Stallman and certain reprehensible actions and opinions.
Just like with Stallman and his contributions to software, I can justify using Lemmy to myself due to it being open source and the devs not directly financially profiting from the spread of Lemmy (although it certainly raises their public profile).
It's definitely unfortunate that they're Tankies.
https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues is likely the best place to suggest this.
Anyway, I agree, it would be good to have the option to disable live updates.
Lemmy will likely have its own "the narwhal bacons at midnight" phase.
It'll interesting to see what it is...and then almost immediately tiresome.
And another generation gap between people who use a double space after a period and those who just use a single space.
You can always tell when someone was trained to type on a typewriter when that happens.
