Every time somebody sends me a thumb I take it as “whatever you say you fucking dumbass” and it pisses me off.
And ya, I’m aware that that the replies are going to be thumbs, let’s see em ya jerks!!!
I’m with you but it’s a generational thing. Are you a millennial?

Sorry, that was rude af, apologies
No that was the exact right use case for it.
Depends on context but mainly it just means ‘Okay!’ or ‘Go ahead!’
Definitely is a rude reply. Zero effort and sarcastic.
I think depending on your generation and language you speak it can have different meanings.

I use the 👍react to show that I’ve seen the message but don’t need to respond. Usually in the case of someone sending a money transfer or something like that.

Never in the history of me sending thumb responses in work chats has it ever meant “whatever you say you fucking dumbass.”
It’s primarily used to show acknowledgement. It’s the office worker equivalent of “10-4.”
Seems like you have some pretty serious projection issues to work out OP lol
Sometimes when I send it to my boss, that’s what it means.
No.

Huh? Maybe I’m strange… But sometimes I give a thumbs up emoji here on Lemmy when I agree with someones argument and have nothing more to add because I 100% agree with the content !
Never though It could be interpreted as rude :/

I’ve read that Gen z doesn’t like this as a response. I think it’s just ok
Whatever you say you fucking dumbass 👍
