@sorry “The site seems to turn a blind eye to sealioning, which is weird to me.”
I don’t think this is true. We do tend to err on the side of leaving things up and assuming good faith, which I understand can be frustrating to people who would prefer us to be more aggressive. But drawing the line differently than you would is not the same thing as turning a blind eye, and people who engage in sealioning and similar behaviors here are heavily moderated. That said, the team has been working on a policy to address the recent upswing of bad faith behavior.
I also think that some of the people who get accused of sealioning here are being given credit they don’t deserve since they don’t even pretend to be polite.
“I tried to ask a question about it meta and it’s disappeared. They had me re edit it, so it did and it never reappeared.”
And this is most certainly untrue. As of this moment, your question is still in editing.
