    my inbox on lemmy. there are users who will follow me from thread to thread harassing me about an argument we had days ago, or will bring it up out of context if i reply to them, which happens often when i don’t pay attention to the username. some of them make posts an comments whining about how biased the mods are when their harassing comments are removed or they get banned, and some have even gone so far as to start maintaining multiple identities to continue to spread misinformation and harass me and other users.

    and the invitation to see my inbox was a bit hyperbolic. in truth, you only need to look at my comment history and the few individuals with whom i have had protracted disagreements should leap out at you.

    some people will definitely follow you around online if you rub them the wrong way.

      That seems more like you are going to hang out in a place where those people also hang out, and are encountering them there, as opposed to them following you around.

        that’s, obviously, not how I would characterize it, but if you need to be right you can think whatever you want.
