No need to be aggressive.
Having placeholder text for inputs describing what the fields is for is quite widespread and not an issue at all. It is true that currently finding where to comment on Lemmy can be a bit disorienting when you begin using the website.
The fact that I found it disorienting proves you wrong.
Please take the time to think wether your aggressiveness brings anything.
If you read that discussion as aggressive, you should close all social network accounts lol
wouldn't it be better to make social media a more welcoming place?
The box just looks like a box. I thought it was a separator or something. Then I saw the post button and realized the box was actually for commenting.
A placeholder would be awesome. Pretty much all the websites and apps add a placeholder text.
And it's wrong. All inputs must have labels, placeholders are only for visuals.
