Patronising shite.

If you're the kind of person who needs an etiquette reminder, you're probably not going to listen to it, and everyone else already knows how to interact like a human.

Fortunately, I don't use the official app so I won't see this rubbish.

Sometimes just holding up that mirror is enough to remind people. I think we overestimate how much bad activity on the web is active maliciousness and how much is the occasional poorly thought out post on a bad day

I dunno, it might just make the "reply guys" who post without thinking reconsider for a second... A lot of people on Mastodon welcome the feature, because a lot of bigger accounts have complaining lately about completely unhelpful and unnecessarily negative replies.
