I tried, but I could not resist the urge to point out that that's not what POV means, unless you mean the user who made the mistake is one of the gunmen.
- Is it not the point of view of the users? I mean as in John Wick in the centre making the mistake.
  
  No, because "point of view" means seeing through their eyes, not looking at their face.

- Oh for crying out loud, it’s
  “really :-P”.
  Note the space between the word “really”, and the emoticon!
  UGH I SWEAR THIS PLATFORM

  Reddit version:
  Lemmy fur-version:
We dont want to scare off people using lesser known software.
Even well-known clients can get weird, e.g. you can interact with lemmy posts through mastodon, but if you're active in the comments, misunderstandings seem practically guaranteed.
