Comment on How would you take 'stfu' from a stranger online, provided what you said wasn't meant to be funny?
NABDad@lemmy.world 1 day agoI think it still depends on the intent and the setting.
If the intent is to end the conversation, then it’s very rude. If it is just being used as an exclamation, then it wouldn’t bother me in a casual setting.
In a chat during an online game as an exclamation: no big deal.
In a response to a personal story shared during a church service: not a good look.
