If so, why and what do you tag them? What fits your bill as to tag and remember someone and to just leave it be?
Oh, bonus question, if you tag people, what am I tagged as? 🥺
I tag for any reason but lately are mostly people that I don’t think they are trolls but they like to argue about anything, so I tag them as a warning to not look too much into it. I’ve also been tagging what I think might be bots before blocking, accounts with a hundred posts per day and a hundred comments per year.
I tag users with extreme views in any direction.
It helps to recognize them in most discussions.
I tagged one person who argued that calling someone by their preferred name and pronouns was infringing on his right to free speech. He was tagged as “Fucko”. Every time I saw them in the comments, I would reply and refer to them as Fucko.
My intent was to get them to realize that it’s not great to be called the wrong name every time you try to interact with people. The comments usually got pulled for being rude, which I understand, but I still feel it was for the greater good.

Thank you. I try.
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 😬 ?
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.
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.
Why use an app for something that works perfectly fine via web browser as well? The less apps I have on my phone the better.
Because the web interface is perfectly fine and I honestly don’t see why every freaking website needs to be an app these days.
Yeah I completely agree when you put it that way. I’ve been doing this for the desktop web apps that I used to have installed (Discord, Spotify, Teams) accessing them via a browser instead.
I’ve been meaning to tidy up my phone anyway so I’ll give the mobile Web UI a good go.
I tag mostly for humor, things I think are funny, unique traits about a person that I’ve noticed are a pattern. Some examples
- thinks the moon landing is fake
- documents tankies
- LOVES Taylor Swift
thinks the moon landing is fake
Everyone knows the government asked Stanley Kubrick to fake the landing, but he’s so dedicated to getting the most out of his actors that he build a real rocket and sent them to the moon.
I’ve been mentioned a couple times for both my specialty knowledge and because I banned a person from curated tumblr for throwing a tantrum so that’s a thing. Idk about tags tho
Am I tagged/labelled folks?
This is a detail I never want to know.
Only 1 person I’ve ever tagged, who posts content I’m not interested in seeing, but I don’t feel like they deserved a straight-up block since they’re still active in discussions elsewhere. My app allows me to filter them without blocking them so I don’t see their posts but I still see their (default hidden) comments that I can open, so I just have a tag to remind me why.
Recurring trolls I just block, so I don’t even see them to necessitate tags to begin with.

Which app is that?
I still use Sync because I’m stubborn and too lazy to learn anything new.
A few times. If I notice the same user and then they mention something specific about themselves, I’ll throw that info into the label, eg: 911 dispatch.

Unfortunately external software, boosts a good one
Voyager is another
i don’t like it :(((
Lol, I just saw your reply in my inbox, and I thought you were that person I just responded to with a screenshot of me tagging them with “probably has ten toes”
Beyond the usual descriptors of troll, zionist, obnoxious twat, etc. I like to place people to general regions and countries if they share them.
It helps me remember that the Internet is not the US and gives me some vague sense of what they may be dealing with outside our cozy Lemmy bubble.
Lemmy is generally left leaning and my politics usually line up with everyone else so whenever I visit Reddit I feel as if everyone’s a twat with how they present themselves…
Fair 'nuff. I usually reserve that one for people dragging out arguments with little or no substance, but a whooooole lotta bluster and passion.
Just because I can.
I know.
You later?
No.
