Almost every time, even when it's something I'm a SME about. I just don't want to play the popularity/karma game and deal with nonsense.
I used to think that Reddit was the worst about that but Lemmy has topped it. Reddit would be filled with comments from people that were off about something small that I’m a SME about. People on Lemmy like to engage in entire comment chains that are just flat out wrong that they’re confidently incorrect about.
And you get shouted down for trying to correct them. I generally prefer to just lurk here, discussion is near impossible.
Probably 95% of the time, honestly.

What is an SME?
Subject matter expert
Ah ok, thanks! Figured it had something to do with "expert" but I couldn't figure it out.
Based on comments above - I’m confident SME stands for “Seinfeld Management Explainer”
