Yeah, it's extra work, and doesn't change the infuriating aspect of enshitification, but it's an option if you absolutely do not want to sign in to the app

For what it's worth, you can generally record a GPS tracking in another app or on another device and then use your photo editing software to add the coordinates to the photos after the fact.

My RC hovercraft! I loved that thing, but it had such a short battery life, it was basically unusable

Your response to abuse and pain is to put more hurt in the world, and not even aimed at the person who caused the initial pain.

And that means you don't care that you're hurting trans folk. And that's transphobia. End of story.

I'll be blocking your account from this instance now, because whatever your reasoning, making the active choice to hurt people impacts the people around you. You don't get to spread the hurt just because of past hurt

As I said, the issue here when you misgender a trans person who was abusive isn't the abusive trans person, it's every other trans person, because you've just told every trans person you know and every trans person that reads this that you don't think trans folks gender is real, that you're only humouring them as long as they're polite.

Spreading more hurt is not the right response to receiving hurt.

Well of you decide to torture someone for 10 years there will be consequence

Yep. But right now, you're arguing that all trans people should face consequences because some trans people can be abusive. Trans people are under attack around the world. We are having our rights stripped, we're being forced in to spaces with the folk most likely to abuse us, we're having our identities stripped away.

And your post here is empowering all of that. It's saying that it's ok to do those things, because a trans persons identity is a privilege, not a right.

I love them. Except when they sound like someone being murdered at 3am

The problem here is that when you misgender the abuser, when you insist that they be treated like a man, you aren't hurting the abuser, you're hurting all trans people, who are also at incredibly high risks of sexual and physical abuse themselves. Moreso when they're forced in to spaces with cis men, who are the most likely group to assault or abuse women (trans and cis).

Which is to say, the victims hurt shouldn't be a reason to spread more hurt, and put more people at risk of abuse

Unless you want to talk about transphobia, racism, LGBTQ rights etc, etc, in which case, you live on the edge constantly wondering when YT is going to demonetize you

Peertube and pixelfed have that built in to the individual instances. It is something I'd like to see more widespread

Most platforms have their "join lemmy" or "join Mastodon" equivalents already
