I keep seeing people calling Blind toxic. Not sure what they mean by it. I understnd TC or GTFO is rude but I dont understand what is so toxic.
It’s not toxic. Some people just don’t have a sense of humor. TC or GTFO is just pubic service at this point.
Because it’s a reflection of what society really thinks.
“TC or GTFO” isn’t meant to be rude. Almost always is in jest. At least I always post it as a joke. Blind is much less toxic than any other platforms.
Blind helped me realize I was severely underpaid at my previous company. They helped me realize that all i neeeded to do was leetcode up and get myself into a nice FAANG to double my TC. Unlike Cscareerquestions where they pretend leetcode is some sort of unfair IQ test. Where ppl with low TC cry and whine every time ppl post their TC. Where people are more than happy to have 5 yoe at home depot software engineer at 50k TC. I love Blind. Blind helped me change my life! TC 170k socal
We all love u back :)
toxic or not, it is not anonymous
To who it is not anonymous?
Toxic when 90% of users are just here to compare TCs
Projection.
@dbky43 why is that toxic?
Toxic is not bad. Botulinum is a toxin but people use Botox all the time. Blind is toxic but have motivated people to achieve higher TC through its toxicity.
U copied someone’s uname. Did toxicity motivate u to do tgatv
Unfortunately, "toxic" has been so diluted that it now means "people saying things I don't agree with". It used to mean someone indiscriminately flaming other people, because pointless anger that makes others feel bad is "toxic" in that it makes the surroundings less hospitable.
People are immoral when there are no ramifications. Anonymity provides that shield.
Really? So u would kill and steal if there was no ramifications?
Yes. Have you not seen Westworld?
Anonymity brings out the worst usually. It's still not as bad as it can potentially be. However, shitposting is not recommended for sensitive people.

'Hindutva': The Radical Hindu Ideology That Seeks to 'Push Christianity Out of India’
Stay a little long. You will see it’s a watered down 4chan for software engineers.
Concrete examples?
Here's a huge thread of examples https://twitter.com/mcmillen/status/1125235812013101061?s=09
