Ya, kremlin troll bots/both the same/etc bots get a tag (the obnoxious/hard core ones gets a block), then misogynists etc gets a tag and nice people gets a tag too.
Little nice? "+", super nice "+++". Little nice several times? "++"
I have no tag on you, who have one on me π¬ ?
I have user tags enabled since itβs fun to see how many times I upvoted or downvoted a user displayed by their username, but I donβt add any of my own tags or interact with users beyond what is said in the comments of a specific thread.
Nope. If they do enough to warrant me clicking their profile to see more about them, I'm usually 90% of the way to a block anyway.
I tag people that never fail to find something to argue about, obvious trolls, bad faith / sea lion conversationalists and so on. If I encounter them again and they show the same behaviour as a pattern, I fully block them.
I also use it for more fun stuff, like who is overly helpful, friendly or who recommended a good book. This way, if I see them again I get reminded of the positive interaction from before
edit: @[email protected] you might want to replace "tag" with "label" or something, people think you mean username @tagging and don't read the body of your post

That's a mention, not a tag. A tag is a private description you save about a user. Only apps have this feature.
I just tagged you. Thunder calls this a "user label".

I use Sync and yes. I tag transphobes, racists, obvious trolls, Zionists, MAGAts, and general chuds.
The vast majority of users you included I don't have tagged as anything
Edit: so far it looks like I have no one in this thread tagged as anything.
I never have cause/need to tag other users, replying usually is enough for me
I typically do not tag people in the Lemmy app. However, there was an instance where I inadvertently did so. This occurred because I was using a Mitra instance to communicate with Lemmy instances, and the Mitra client app automatically tagged the Lemmy user in that process.
No, because it's not a standard lemmy feature and I don't use 3rd party apps.
Why is it that you don't use 3rd party apps? I have no issue with Jerboa and have used it extensively, but I'm mainly wondering if there's something I'm missing with 3rd party Lemmy clients.
Because the web interface is perfectly fine and I honestly don't see why every freaking website needs to be an app these days.
