        If it’s extremely subtle sarcasm yes. I agree. There was nothing subtle about my post though

            That doesn’t mean it’s extremely hard to pick up on obvious sarcasm. It just means some people are morons lol.

        I like to call them deadpan instead of sarcasm. Sarcasm has a tone to let others know that it isn’t serious, while deadpan relies fully on the content itself.

        I had a lot more deadpan comments crash and burn on Reddit than here. And even in this case, someone just questioned the comment while it had overall positive reception. I think Lemmy generally gets deadpan.
