I’m the opposite. I manage a BAU team and our team are active on slack, and seem to be thriving. We have two webex meetings a week, keep in constant touch and we all love it.

Online communities are more than good enough at the best of times so I don’t see how they can’t work in the professional space.

Ok - but I don’t go to work for a sense of community? I go to work to earn money to survive. My tasks get done, profits are up overall so why do I need to feel engaged and how does being isolated have any negative effect on that?

I think the Tory government are a shower of self serving cunts. That’s business as usual though.

I’ve honestly no idea why they keep getting voted in again and again. Baffles me even more why folk are voting Tory here in Scotland. “Fuck you, I’ve got mine” seems to be a big factor.

It’s a waste of time. These types of people are as thick as mince, you’re not gonna change their mind because they have zero interest or incentive to do so. It’s a fucking cult of morons.

At first when they changed the layout I thought it was to try and mimic a mobile phone kind of layout, portrait instead of landscape sort of, to make it identical on pc and phone. Not that it made sense then, But they’re pushing everyone to their shite app so it makes even less sense now.

Tory cretins acting like the scum they are. Fuck yeah, I guess.

It’s affronting the way they can just spout this bullshit when it’s that shower of shite that’s the fucking cause.

Makes me wonder what the hell was going on over there. Guy clearly had a bit of a reputation so why was he allowed to just do whatever while people obviously suspected?

“It added that a colleague had reported him twice due to “insider threat indicators” as well as unauthorized possession of air force equipment, according to investigators”

Is my favourite part. What the actual fuck.

Hardly being pedantic - you’re being correct and I appreciate you letting me know!

And I loved it - he told me to eat it with some whipped cream. Had that and a coffee and I was in heaven.

What the fuck. It would be hilarious if it wasn’t so pathetic! The mods over there are a bunch of bawbags.

I reported a Fox News post that claimed climate change has no effect on the rise in wildfires. First time ever reporting anything there, and maybe reported a handful of racist comments before that.

Not even an hour later I got the message that I had been permanently banned! Appealed it, they said they’d reviewed the ban and it stands. Fucking laughable!!

A few weeks ago when I still used Reddit via old.Reddit I was constantly getting switched to the new Reddit. It was infuriating.

Glad to see my permanent ban for reporting one fucking Fox News post on politics for blatant climate change denialism is on level with this. For using the report function to bully/harrass ffs. Laughable!

Place was becoming a shitehole months before these API changes anyway.

Played through It Takes Two with my 13 year old daughter and it remains one of our favourite days. So much fun and the story is just brilliant.

Ahh that makes me feel a bit better at least!

To be honest, as time went by and a few of my subreddits I frequented started to get brigaded by transphobes and fascist bawbags (Scotland and unitedkingdom subs are a great example of this) I stopped participating altogether in them.

I found the casualuk sub and that became pretty much the only place I’d comment/post. It felt like a much closer-knit community and I’d much rather have that than a massive community that may not feel as “homely” if that makes sense.

EDIT - I replied to the wrong post, I’ve not had a coffee yet.
